Subjectivist (GB)

Two-time Group 1 winner Subjectivist (GB) (Teofilo {Ire}), who won the G1 Gold Cup at Royal Ascot last month, has sustained a leg injury that puts him out of action until at least next season.

There was to be no fourth Gold Cup for Stradivarius (Ire) (Sea the Stars {Ire}) on Thursday, as the King of Royal Ascot had to surrender his crown to the ultra-impressive Subjectivist (GB) (Teofilo {Ire}) in a renewal set to enter into the meeting's folklore. While Mark Johnston's relentless galloper was a worthy winner and can justifiably be viewed as one of the race's best, the outcome was marred by the trouble-in-running that the three-times winner encountered as the fortune of the Gosden icon met an abrupt turn. Stuck in...

The 4-year-old entire, who won the G1 Prix Royal-Oak at ParisLongchamp last October and the G2 Dubai Gold Cup at Meydan in March, fell en route to the gallops on Friday. "We had a scare on Friday, he fell over and skinned both knees and his hocks but just superficial grazes," Mark Johnston told...

Group 1 winner Subjectivist (GB) (Teofilo {Ire}), a winner of the G2 Dubai Gold Cup on Mar. 27, is likely to start next in the G1 Gold Cup at Royal Ascot in June. Successful at the highest level in the Prix Royal-Oak last fall, the Dr. Walker colourbearer also saluted in the G3 March S. on Aug. 29 and earlier in the season won the Listed Glasgow S. "He had a fantastic campaign last year--we always thought of him as a genuine St Leger horse, but that was probably his...

"He'll definitely go to Lingfield on Finals Day and he's in at Saudi next month," said Mark Johnston's son and assistant Charlie. "I'll have to clarify how their system works out there as to whether he'll get a penalty for his win, because at the moment he's not guaranteed a run. Were they...

Set against the gloom of a damp autumn day, Sunday's G1 Prix Royal-Oak belonged to the Brits as Subjectivist (GB) (Teofilo {Ire}) made all under Joe Fanning to take the ParisLongchamp feature. Always content on the front end as he had been when registering a 15-length success in similarly testing conditions in Goodwood's G3 March S. Aug. 29, the 6-1 shot drifted left into the centre of the track up the home straight but was as resolute as could be expected of a Mark Johnston representative. At the line, the...
