*Sky Sports Racing is only an rumour at time of this post.
I don't see how they would need to "test" that on internal networks. A re-brand or, for that matter, changing the EPG slot of an existing channel is relatively simple matter of issuing a new version of the Service Description Table with updated details at the time of the change.

The cryptically named channels have the same "pack" codes as Sky Sports 3, 4, 5 & F1. Sky Sports 1 and 2 each have a unique (different) pack code. At the Races has pack codes for the M, More, Mix, M+, Fun and Full House packs. So no obvious links between the newly added channels and At the Races.
