Form & Verdict
Consistent sort was placed in three maidens before emphatically getting off the mark at Dundalk last month over this trip; all her form is on a sound surface and she could still be improving, so is a serious player.

Five wins for Joe Murphy, latest of them over 1m1f at Tipperary in October; big prices and has shown little in four starts for this yard; mark tumbling, but prefers it soft and will be of more interest when the rain returns.
