Bosham Mill and Moscow Whisper look set for a straight shoot-out here, with only Unsigned holding a slight chance of upsetting the likely forecast. Bosham Mill comes from the in-form stable of Ian Williams and added to the yard's tally with a debut success at Chepstow. Formerly a useful stayer with Geoff Wragg, the five-year-old's class should see him through, although he would not want the ground to firm up any more than it already is. He was soundly beaten at Stratford on Saturday but did not help his cause with one or two untidy jumps, and in the belief that it was just an off-day on his part, he is taken to quickly bounce back. Moscow Whisper is certainly not as experienced as Bosham Mill, having had just the four career starts. However, he did not take long to open his account, popping in at Stratford a fortnight ago. It was a workmanlike performance and the drop back in trip might not suit. He should still prove too strong for the rest of them though, including Unsigned, second to Gebora at Exeter. That form has taken a knock since though and it is hard to enthuse about his claims.
