Formscan By Gary Carson - NOBLE EXHIBIT was very impressive when taking his maiden at Punchestown 11 days ago and can step up in stakes company now. It looked like a competitive enough race then but he pulled away in some style to score by seven lengths. The form of his debut third, behind Monogram, has worked out well and he could be very smart. Stablemate Shakespeare won his maiden here last month but was well held in Group 1 company at Leopardstown a fortnight ago. He could be a danger dropping slightly in grade. City Of Dubai wasn’t disgraced when fifth in the Futurity Stakes but probably needs to step up on that effort now. His yard has been in better form recently.

For two years old only
Weights - 9st 5lbs. Fillies allowed 3lbs.
Penalties - Winner of a Group 2 race 3lb extra Of a Group 1 race 5lb extra
