I Doubt That drops down in trip raised 5lb for winning won over 1m4f at Kempton while a couple of these missed out on hat-tricks last time. Gilbert was narrowly beaten at Salisbury and has only his second start on the all-weather while course and distance winner TAWTHEEF (NAP) ran into trouble back here when well behind third-placed Think Trigger. But the former looks capable of reversing the running with normal luck in-running and Tom Marquand’s presence is another positive.
