Verdict
NIGHT TRADE need only reproduce the form of Wednesday's win at Catterick to land this. She ran out a cosy winner on that occasion and none of today's rivals arrive in anything like top form. Saharia looks to be in decline while Into The Wind again showed little in his latest seventh at Lingfield. Eternal Youth has yet to win on turf and the remainder are totally out of sorts.
