Horse Racing Tips: Timeform's three best bets at Chelmsford on Thursday

NAP: Lindwall can win again

Lindwall - 20:30 Chelmsford

Lindwall fluffed his lines on handicap debut at Salisbury in May but he has shown much improved form to win his last two starts since switched back to the all-weather and he is a handicapper to keep on the right side. He won in comprehensive fashion upped to this trip at Wolverhampton last time, looking a typical Sir Mark Presscott improver who will stay ahead of the handicapper for a while yet. He is 7 lb higher now but is fully expected to complete a hat-rick.

No. 7 (5)

Lindwall (Ire)

SBK9/10

EXC2.14

• Trainer: Sir Mark Prescott Bt
• Jockey: Luke Morris
• Age: 3
• Weight: 9st 2lbs
• OR: 64

NEXT BEST: Catch My Breath makes plenty of appeal

Catch My Breath - 19:30 Chelmsford

Catch My Breath confirmed the promise of his previous run and landed some nice bets when resuming winning ways at Lingfield last week. He made some rapid headway around three furlongs out and the manner in which he swept round the outside on the home turn suggests he is back in top form. He remains well treated on old form turned out under a 5 lb penalty and he should take plenty of beating.

No. 1 (11)

Catch My Breath

SBK9/5

EXC5.6

• Trainer: John Ryan
• Jockey: Darragh Keenan
• Age: 5
• Weight: 9st 13lbs
• OR: 61

EACH WAY: Consistent Araifjan can go well again

Araifjan - 18:00 Chelmsford

Araifjan won over course and distance earlier in the year and recorded his first win on turf at Yarmouth last time, arguably producing a career-best performance under this rider. He is a consistent sort but he is arguably better than ever at present and he seems sure to be in the mix once more.

No. 1 (1)

Araifjan

SBK9/2

EXC5.9

• Trainer: Robert Cowell
• Jockey: Grace McEntee
• Age: 4
• Weight: 9st 12lbs
• OR: 77
