Shortened Form of Keyword Rich Domain Name

[plemerby]

My top keyphrase consists of a city name, followed by the product, in two words. Example: "gotham key phrase".

My competitor already has gothamkeyphrase.com and is ranked #1.

gothkeyphrase.com is available.

How would google interpret this and position it if the search term is still "gotham key phrase".

Thanks

If you're going to go with the search phrase in the domain name, why not just go with gotham-keyphrase.com?
