Major race wins

Noble Nashua was purchased for racing by the Flying Zee Stable of Carl Lizza, Jr. and Herbert Hochreiter and trained by Jose Martin. In 1981, Noble Nashua five important stakes races including the Grade I Swaps Stakes[2] at Hollywood Park Racetrack and the Marlboro Cup Handicap at Belmont Park.[3] He also set a new stakes and Belmont Park track record of 1:33 1/5 for one mile on dirt in winning the Jerome Handicap.[4] His stakes record time still stands as at 2011. Further, Noble Nashua set a new stakes record of 1:43 flat for a mile and a sixteenth on dirt in his Whirlaway Stakes victory at Aqueduct Racetrack, missing the track record by just one fifth of a second.[5]His stakes record time stood for twenty-six years.

Noble Nashua was syndicated to a group of breeders for $11 million dollars with Flying Zee Stable maintaining a significant interest. [6]

At stud

Noble Nashua sustained a leg injury during his second start in April 19, 1982 and as a result was retired from racing. He was sent to stand at stud at Schoenborn Farm in Coxsackie, New York.[7] Noble Nashua sired a number of good runners among which the top earner was Ballindaggin.

A problem with a twisted intestine led to Noble Nashua being humanely euthanized in September of 1992 at age fourteen.

The Noble Nashua Stakes for New York Ste bredhorses at Belmont Park is named in his honor.
