Noble’s impressive start

Noble Order made an impressive start to his career with us at Newcastle on Saturday evening when running out a taking winner on his debut in the beige and blue.

Picked up for just 16,000gns at horses in training sales last October from Godolphin, the five-year-old already looks an exciting addition and looks set to give his new owners lots of fun this year after running out a fluent winner at Newcastle.

Prior to catching the attention of our buying team, Noble Order had started a red-hot favourite for all four of his races for Charlie Appleby, winning once and placing a further three times.

Something of a giant of a horse, it was no surprise this regally bred son of Dubawi had not really been ready to do himself justice in his younger years and we felt he had considerable potential to improve in line with his fine pedigree as he matured.

Noble Order is extremely well bred, being by one of the world's best sires out of a mare that won at Group 3 level. Furthermore, he’s a full brother to Group 3 winner Royal Fleet, and a half-brother to another Group 3 winner in Royal Crusade.

His opening effort for Archie Watson could hardly have been more likeable, the five-year-old making light of his big break from the track, travelling with ease under Hollie Doyle behind the pace, before picking up strongly to win with authority.

Hollie was delighted with Noble’s impressive start for his horse racing syndicate and feels he’s a horse who’s well capable of improving this year and giving his owners lots of fun as he does so.

This was yet another outstanding training performance by trainer Archie Watson, who is now plotting his next move with this exciting, well bred addition to the team.

We look forward to seeing how Noble Order can progress this year after this perfect start to his career with Hambleton.
