Easy maiden winner here and doesn't look badly treated at all for his handicap debut

2m4f maiden winner and an interesting handicap debutant now with the Kerry Lee yard
7	Iron D'Ex Grey J:Sean Houlihan T:Sheila Lewis	J:Sean Houlihan T:Sheila Lewis	151	p	20625P	97	116	102	17d	—	—	+6	15.3	1.88/1	15/2 12%
Two good runs here before failing to stay 2m7f at Bangor after racing freely

Pulled up at Warwick after a year on the sidelines so current wellbeing is an issue

Capable as he showed two runs back but he's become a hard horse to trust

Three wins but below best on handicap debut in August and the ground is a worry

Tailed off in first handicap but beaten about 12l in his last two; longer trip can help
