In survival, horse speed is OK. But when on creative, all horses seem to be very slow, compared to the speed they should actually be.

Excuse me, sir, but I am not mentally retarded, as you may think.
As I stated in the description, the horses are slower on CREATIVE and normal speed on SURVIVAL. More specifically: the SAME horse has a normal speed on SURVIVAL, but when you change gamemode to CREATIVE and sit in this SAME horse, it is SLOWER.
Clear now?
Confirmed. I was just testing the speed of my horses before updating, and stored the results in a spreadsheet. Now some of the horses are half as fast, creative or survival.
More info on this issue...
When mounting a horse and unable to move them, dismounting and moving them with a lead first solves this. What I also discovered, is some of the horses are running a LOT slower. When mounting a horse and it WILL move, it seems to run almost half speed. Getting off and using a lead to move them also seems to restore their speed.
Can anyone else confirm this behavior?
I can definitely confirm the behavior where horses don't move until after they are pulled by a lead. Also, I can slightly confirm the behavior where they don't move at their regular speed until pulled by a lead. I remember having my fastest horse not running as fast in my survival world but I don't remember if just getting off the horse and then getting back on fixed it or if I pulled it with a lead.
Horse speed is random even if two horses are the same breed. Some are slow and some are fast. You are probably just getting the bad horses when you are spawning them in creative.
