URGENT WHISPER is only modest on the Flat but she showed enough in a pair of juvenile hurdles at Killarney last summer to suggest she's up to winning a race of this nature. Witches Familiar is a noteworthy newcomer for leading connections, while Cinating has shown some promise in bumpers and must enter the reckoning on her hurdling debut.
