Timeform UK SmartPlays: Monday February 16

Jonjo O'Neill can have a winner at Carlisle today

"Upswing hasn't fired this season, but is well handicapped on his Newbury victory a year ago and, with his yard in much better form, he could well bounce back."

Timeform's SmartPlays team bring you bets on Monday from Carlisle and Lingfield.

Three Faces West  - 14:25 Carlisle

Previous winners Three Faces West and Gone Forever are likely to come to the fore again, the former achieving more and arguably open to greater progress, too. Rock N Rhythm's Irish bumper form entitles him to respect now hurdling for a leading yard.

Lessons In Milan  - 15:50 Lingfield

Lessons In Milan showed enough when third on hurdles debut at Ascot last month to think a race of this nature will be within his compass so he gets the nod. Coyaba is on something of a recovery mission following his Newbury disappointment but rates a threat, along with Thats My Rabbit.

Upswing  - 16:00 Carlisle

Upswing hasn't fired this season, but is well handicapped on his Newbury victory a year ago and, with his yard in much better form, he could well bounce back. Spanish Fleet enjoyed an excellent finish to 2014 and seems sure to be involved, with Conquisto another to consider.
