Cavalryman showed a devastating turn of foot to roll back the years in winning the Dubai Gold Cup at Meydan

Settled at the rear of a sedate early pace set by Declan McDonogh on John Oxx's Saddler's Rock, the challengers were queuing up two furlongs out.

Tenenbaum looked a threat in the Godolphin second colours while Imperial Monarch was struggling to find racing room, but once Silvestre de Sousa asked Cavalryman to quicken the race was over and Saeed bin Suroor's seven-year-old sprinted clear to win impressively from the Kieren Fallon-ridden Ahzeemah.
