“Very rarely, you come across a horse where the opposition isn’t a factor at all. Subjectivist was such a horse. In 2021, I truly believed that there wasn’t a horse in the world that could beat him at two miles or more, in any ground.”
Mark Johnston, trainer
““Incredibly tough, honest and genuine.”
Joe Fanning, jockey
