Show of boldness intended to impress (7)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

bravado

(Other definitions for bravado that I've seen before include "Impressive boldness" , "Vaunted courage" , "Show of bravery" , "front" , "Display of confidence or daring, often boastful and insincere" .)

I've seen this clue in The Guardian.
