Subjectivist streaks to Dubai gold
Big staying races all on the horizon for Johnston ace.
Mark Johnston’s Subjectivist put up an impressive performance to win the Dubai Gold Cup at Meydan.
The four-year-old, winner of the Group One Prix Royal-Oak on heavy ground when last seen at ParisLongchamp in October, demonstrated his adaptability on this much quicker surface, and put down a marker for all this summer’s top staying races.
Joe Fanning had the 5-1 shot prominent throughout as For The Top initially led the Group Two field.
Subjectivist took over to go clear in the straight and had a yawning five and three-quarter lengths to spare at the line – as outsiders Walderbe and Away He Goes stayed on best of the well-beaten rest to be second and third respectively.
