Crossword Genius

Remove the victor from inside (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

evict

'remove' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)

'the victor from inside' is the wordplay.
'inside' indicates a hidden word.
'EVICT' can be found hidden inside 'the victor from'.

(Other definitions for evict that I've seen before include "Expel (from property)" , "Throw out, expel" , "Expel (tenant)" , "Turn out (of property)" , "Throw out, legally" .)

I've seen this clue in The Mirror.
