Sky Sports Racing broadcasts live action from Bath and Worcester on Wednesday, featuring several compelling handicap contests. At Bath, Swiped looks to build on his recent course-and-distance victory in the Free Tips On attheraces.com Handicap after impressively winning over a mile for trainer Ralph Beckett.

The three-year-old's handicap debut followed by that striking performance suggests further improvement is possible. Post Rider carries top weight for Oliver Cole and makes appeal after dropping another 2lb, despite running third on unsuitably soft ground at Goodwood.

Worcester's card opens with Quick Sharpener facing 10 rivals in the Perrigo Consultant Tax Saving Handicap Chase. The Jamie Snowden-trained nine-year-old doubled his chase tally at Hereford in May and could offer more after that successful first start for connections. Yes Day brings strong form from finishing second to future Summer Cup winner Imperial Alex at Stratford.

Later, in-form pair Neigh Botha and Greer Hill headline the Worcestershire Ambassadors Handicap Chase. Neigh Botha secured his third win in four starts with a career-best performance, while Greer Hill jumped well to win on his chasing debut over this course and distance last month.
