Would you cycle the gear?

Indeed it would have been. In fact, we did that, it being one of the
items on the checklist in the POH.

In that case, then I agree with what you did. The only likely situation
where the emergency gear extension would have left you without 3 wheels down
and locked would have been if there were a mechanical obstruction, and as
you pointed out it is possible that cycling the gear could have made the
situation worse in this case.
