We're set for a busy day on Sky Sports Racing, with action to come from Yarmouth, Newton Abbot and Bath.

2.40 Yarmouth - Kinswoman and Almaty Star feature in sprint contest

A field of 13 will contest the second race at Yarmouth on Wednesday in the Sky Sports Racing 415 Handicap over the minimum trip.

William Haggas and Cieren Fallon team up here with Kinswoman, who had very consistent form last year including three wins and a number of placed efforts. This daughter of Mehmas has an entry in the King Charles III Stakes at Royal Ascot and will have to go well here if she is to take up that assignment at the Royal meeting.

Robert Cowell's Almaty Star had a successful return to turf last month having placed several times this winter on the all-weather and will be looking to take his record to 2-2 over this course and distance.

Grandlad returned from a 132-day absence when scoring at Nottingham last month when making all and getting the better of today's opponent Nogo's Dream by a head and both of these are ones to keep an eye on here.

Alondra, Rocking Ends and Naana's Sparkle are others to note.

6.30 Newton Abbot - In-form Move With The Beat pursues the hat-trick

Four go to post for the Racing Welfare Supporting Mental Health Awareness Handicap Chase over two miles and five furlongs at Newton Abbot and Jamie Snowden saddles in-form Move With The Beat, who is bidding to land the hat-trick here. After not showing much on his first three runs for the yard, the seven-year-old comfortably scored at Ludlow in January. Then after a below par effort at Taunton, the gelding has recorded successive wins over a slightly shorter trip and steps up to the two miles and five furlongs trip here.

Joe Tizzard's Siam Park looked a useful prospect last year however things haven't quite gone to plan recently and Tizzard will be hoping this step up in trip may be the key to the seven-year-old finding his form of last year.

Paul Nicholls saddles Inca De Lafayette, who finished last season's campaign with a very game 22 length success at Plumpton under Jay Tidball. Freddie Keighley takes over in the saddle here and connections will be hoping a similar result can play out.

Jonjo and A J O'Neill saddle Anyharminasking - who is without a win in over a year but goes in first time blinkers here and makes up this field of four.

7.12 Bath - Moon Over The Sea bids to defy penalty

A field of six will contest the Sky Sports Racing Sky 415 Handicap over the extended 11 furlongs at Bath on Wednesday and Tony Carroll's gelding Moon Over The Sea will look to defy a penalty here, landing the hat-trick. After running a number of solid efforts on the all-weather this winter, the seven-year-old scored on his return to the turf over course and distance last month and followed that up with another success over this trip last week.
