It's A Breeze
Confidence: Medium

It's A Breeze (SR 86, 2/1) carries the top-weight of 12-1 but holds the highest SR in the field by a clear margin over The Gypsy Davey (SR 85) and is the class horse here, stepping down one tier (ClassMv:↓1) from a mark it has already won off (MarkMv:=). Course:W1P1 at Newton Abbot is a meaningful positive on a track that rewards specialists, and the form string shows a recent win (4th digit from right is '4', rightmost is '1' — last run a win) just 6 days ago suggesting peak fitness under Paul Nicholls, whose 18% strike rate from only 39 runners signals a selective, confident operation. The GoingFit:- is the one genuine concern, but the class drop and course familiarity outweigh it in a weak Class 5 field where the nearest rival by SR (Flashy Boy, SR 79) is carrying 1st-7lb less but has a deeply inconsistent form string of PP1P-4 and a jockey on just 4%. Each-way alternative: Chief Black Robe. Main danger: Flashy Boy — Flashy Boy (SR 79, 7/2) has steamed in 33% in the market — the strongest move in the race — carries a very manageable 10-8, and a last-run fourth following a win suggests it is on an upward curve, making it the one horse the market believes in most apart from the favourite.
