All Too Rosey set to salute at Port Macquarie

The seventh race of the day at Port Macquarie is an interesting 1512m Class 2 handicap contest.

A soft 5 track is expected for the race, with Pocket Eights expected to feature prominently in the better for trainer Gregory McFarlane.

The four-year-old is a winner already this prep, having taken out a 1412m Class 1 handicap held on a heavy track at Taree in March.

The gelding has made just two subsequent starts, with the best of those a third of five when again race on a heavy surface at Gosford at the end of last month.

The son of Impending contested a 1200m Benchmark 68 handicap that day and he rates highly in this event.

Tony Ball's ALL TOO ROSEY is preferred on this occasion, however, having recorded solid efforts in all four starts in 2025.

Those four runs have all come on heavy going, with the pick of them a good second when beaten less than a length in a Benchmark 58 handicap at Taree earlier this month.

The 5.50 pick raced over 1300m on that occasion, having finished fifth in a similar contest over 1400m at the same venue prior.

The quicker going expected for this event is no issue and, jumping from barrier eight, she is taken to provide apprentice Shae Wilkes with a winner.

Tiz Time for McLeod ride to impress

A soft 6 track is expected at Wangaratta for their ten-race card, with the finale an 1170m Benchmark 64 handicap.

The Ciaron Maher-trained Alero is expected to have his supporters, having shown up well in both starts this prep.

The first of those saw him complete a double when coming home over two lengths clear of his nearest rival in a 1200m Benchmark 64 handicap.

The colt raced on the Heath course at Caulfield that day and he went on to place second over the same distance at Pakenham at the end of last month.

Luke Cartwright takes a valuable one-and-a-half kilograms off his back here and he is expected to go well once more.

The Lloyd Kennewell & Lucy Yeoman representative TIZ TIME is the pick on this occasion, though.

The daughter of Cable Bay has placed second in both starts since resuming with a fourth over 112m at Geelong in April.

The 6.00 selection contested a Benchmark 64 handicap when beaten just over one-and-a-half-lengths on that occasion.

The four-year-old backed that effort up with a solid effort to be beaten less than a length in a 1203m Benchmark 64 handicap at Kyneton last month.

Rhys McLeod, on board that day, returns to the saddle here, with his mount having lost out by less than half-a-length over 1200m at Seymour on her most recent start.

Treasured Queen to rule at Kalgoorlie

The fourth race of the day at Kalgoorlie is an 1100m Benchmark 70 handicap event expected to take place on a good 4 track.

TREASURED QUEEN takes the eye, with Lucy Fiore booked to ride following a good second in a Benchmark 70+ handicap here last month.

The 2.60 five-year-old was returning from a break when racing over this track and trip on that occasion and she is also a previous winner at metro level.

Trained by Peter Fernie, the sound surface expected here is no issue, with two of her four previous victories having come on good going.

The daughter of Vancouver boasts a good barrier four from the rail and she is expected to prove hard to beat racing second up.
