Oxx retires Sea The Stars

John Oxx's brilliant colt Sea The Stars has been retired, it was announced today.

The six-time Group One winner had been in the mix for the Breeders' Cup Classic but connections have decided to call time on his career.

Oxx had intimated after his latest win in the Prix de l'Arc de Triomphe that retirement was likely for the son of Cape Cross, and it was confirmed in a statement this afternoon.
