I did the same thing and the DPE elected not to do it at night for that reason as well as the lack of a strong horizon reference.
Since there are no ground reference maneuvers for any multi-engine ride, that shouldn't be a problem.

Again, unless you have been always doing you maneuvers at night time, you might want to avoid going on the checkride at night. Is you schedule just such that there is no possible way to do it during the day? What about early AM?
