Verdict

INSIDE TRACK sets the standard and is in form so is chosen to take this mile seller at the expense of City Gossip and Hubble Space. The pick finally got off the mark at the seventh attempt in a maiden over a slightly longer trip at this track last time. In the process he held the re-opposing City Gossip by just over a length. He was staying on well that day so should get this extra distance and based on that run he should confirm his superiority. That said City Gossip does have a favourable weight swing in his favour and the way this race is framed has him almost level with the selection. However, he didn't quite seem to get home last time so we feel the pick should have the upper hand again. Hubble Space looks the only other to have any real claims on the race based on a couple of solid looking efforts and unless Mororless can make a very promising debut then Inside Track should be going in again.
