Verdict

Having shown plenty of ability on debut, INNER CITY was still green when only third at Sandown next time but the son of Dubawi remains capable of better and can open his account at the third attempt. Mission To Moon improved from his first start when runner-up at Kempton 2 weeks ago and is feared most, ahead of Rey de La Batalla.
