Bit uncertain on this one because it may depend on how mean exam marks are, but you really should just write two you're sure about and delete the third. Because what they may deduct marks for is incorrect answer on top of correct ones.

Depends on what subject
In a science, they will generally encourage you to write more reasons that given and will only take marks off if you write something incorrect. If you are unsure about the third reason leave it out. If you are certain about all three, then it's not a bad idea to put it in.
In a humanities subject, if its like "Discuss two reasons..." you should just stick with the two, otherwise you will likely struggle to get the depth they want
