St Nicholas Abbey's racing career is over after the horse suffered a serious injury at Ballydoyle on Tuesday.
The Aidan O'Brien-trained six-year-old was being prepared to race at the King George VI And Queen Elizabeth Stakes at Ascot this weekend.
Owners John Magnier, Michael Tabor and Derrick Smith now hope he can be saved for a stud career.
Coolmore racing operation confirmed the news on its Twitter feed and said that "vets are currently attending to him".
It added: "We hope to save him for a career at stud, a further update will be posted later."
St Nicholas Abbey had won a third Coronation Cup at Epsom in June and is a six-times Group One winner.
