Verdict
Askamore Darsi has had six starts over fences and been placed three times while Silver Dragon has yet to win in seven chase outings. Maybe Plenty is preferred to Oficial Ben of the chasing newcomers while Red Danaher faded away after a blunder on his chasing debut at Southwell in October. But CYCLOP fared better on his second start over fences when third at Bangor last month and David Dennis' charge gets the nod to come good in this.
