A decent little novices' chase here and the progressive Bobosh can take it, with Raw Silk and Jodante the pair to complete the frame. The selection has really got the hang of things over fences this summer and has improved some 19lb on official ratings, to give him every chance here. That upward curve was maintained despite a defeat last time out to Mouseski, who has come out and won again since, so the form looks solid and he can improve once more and land this. Raw Silk gave 4lb and a beating to Jodante last time out and off level weights he looks capable of repeating the dose here. However, we do anticipate improvement from Peter Beaumont's charge, and there should not be much between the pair, though for selection purposes they should both end up behind Bobosh.
