Verdict
Elnawin can win this maiden with both Trading Nation and Outofoil worth noting. The selection showed promise on his debut when finishing an eye catching fourth of thirteen at Newmarket. With further improvement to come he will be difficult to oppose. Trading Nation is a well bred individual and his connections are always respected. The stables juveniles do tend to come on for a run but that said he would not have to be a world beater to go very close so he is worth noting in the market. As is Outofoil who comes from a yard that can produce first time out winners and with Seb Sanders booked to ride he is another for the short list. But for the winner we return to Elnawin.
