Verdict

IFF IN DOUBT has been going the right way since handicapping, getting off the mark over C&D in February and shaping as if a return to 7f would suit at the Curragh last time, so he is taken to resume winning ways. Kc Bear also arrives in good form and is feared most, ahead of Gonna Be Golden.
