Subjectivist runs away with Dubai Gold Cup 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.
