FormscanBy John O'Riordan - The Gordon Elliott-trained four-year-old MORDOR should appreciate stepping up to this trip for the first time over hurdles. A consistent performer in stronger races over the winter, the gelding opened his account at Sligo last month. However, it was when following up back on the flat over 1m 6f at Killarney just over a week later that the Roaring Lion gelding indicated that he really enjoyed a stamina test. Staying on to finish second at Galway last time confirmed the suspicion that he now requires at least this far. Dollar Value, who ran a remarkable race when winning a Sligo Claiming Hurdle on Thursday has to be a contender if getting away on terms. Semblance Of Order would be a serious danger to all if fit and ready for this first run since November.
