Champion trainer Aidan O'Brien's Frankel-sired Noble Exhibit (11/4) was the seven lengths-winner of the Punchestown Is Back Maiden today, scoring for the Coolmore partners and jockey Wayne Lordan.

Placed third to last weekend's National Stakes runner-up Monogram on his Curragh debut last month, Noble Exhibit put on a show in today's race when making all the running, to score easily from Dancinginthecity .

O'Brien's representative Chris Armstrong said “Noble Exhibit had a lovely run the first day at the Curragh and that form is working out well. Wayne gave him a lovely ride today and when he jumped and got the lead, it was a nice advantage to have. In fairness once he asked him, he really stretched out to the line.

“He's a lovely mover, had no problem with the ground and will even go on a bit quicker.

“Over the coming two weeks it's just about finding out where they all fit in. He'll go for one of the mile Group races or he could even stretch a bit further.”
