Verdict
Plan Again hasn't had much racing for his age but has managed to win a point-to-point, a bumper and score twice over hurdles. He'll mount a bold challenge but conceding weight to ORSIPPUS could be beyond him. Three times a winner on the Flat and over hurdles, he's only had three runs over fences but has shown ability in better company and should be good enough. Quick Brew has had 17 starts over timber without winning and makes his chasing debut as does Honourable Gent, though the latter has managed to win twice over hurdles and has a pedigree more suited to fences. Dynamic Drive showed ability on his chasing debut and though 5lb out of the handicap Stephen Mulqueen's claim takes care of the extra.
