Horse Racing tips: Timeform’s 7 best bets at Haydock on Friday

14:10 Lightly Squeeze

LIGHTLY SQUEEZE showed improved form to complete a quick-fire hat-trick over hurdles at Plumpton back in January, and he was in the process of running well from a whopping 17lb higher when departing at the last in the Betfair Hurdle the following month, looking sure to play a hand in the finish.

He made rapid progression over hurdles and looks potentially well treated now back on the Flat.

14:45 Series Of Dreams

SERIES OF DREAMS was much improved from her debut when runner-up at Yarmouth last month, still showing signs of greenness but deserving of extra credit for coming from off the pace.

She remains open to further progress and holds leading claims.

15:20 Bielsa

BIELSA made it four wins from five starts on his final appearance of last season, and after disappointing in the Wokingham at Royal Ascot on his return to action, he took a step back in the right direction when fourth in a good quality event over this course and distance last time.

He shaped as if he might still be building up his fitness on that occasion, and with two outings now under his belt, a big showing is expected from Kevin Ryan’s charge.

15:50 Shepherds Way

SHEPHARDS WAY showed much improved form to land the odds over this course and distance last time, looking suited by the return to a well-run five furlongs.

She is up 7lb for that win but has the potential for better still and is certainly one to keep on side.
