ROCKHAMPTON PREVIEW AND TIPS | EXPERT TIPS | WEDNESDAY SEPTEMBER 17TH 2025
Rockhampton is set to host a 11 race program on Wednesday evening with the first to commence at 6:55PM local time. The meeting is headlined by three heats of Q Gold series featuring the likes of Bright Side, Riding Solo and Edgewood.
6. Urgent Message
5. Tusken Tiger
2. Clear Blue Sky
1. Rosa’s Peaches
Betting Strategy
Tricky race to kick off proceedings. CLEAR BLUE SKY (2) knuckled at the start and was checked immediately after on debut. He could very easily improve out of sight; however, is well found in betting. ROSA’S PAECHES (1) and TUSKEN TIGER (5) look the speed here while URGENT MESSAGE (6) is the “run-on” dog engaged and has rarely missed a placing in recent starts.
3. Who Said Donuts
5. Dream House
4. Tiger Tommy
1. Miss Senorita
Betting Strategy
BACK: 3. Who Said Donuts (WIN) for 1 unit (Rated at $7.00)
WHO SAID DONUTS (3) led throughout to defeat the favourite DREAM HOUSE (5) on debut just last fortnight. Pen her last start effort when getting checked heavily shortly after box rise. There isn’t a great deal of speed drawn underneath her and if she can find the arm here she’ll give a sight at double figures.
2. Arnie Ferrari
5. Sneaky Pete
1. Golden Envy
8. Nuka
Betting Strategy
LAY: 1. Golden Envy (WIN) for 2 units (Rated at $3.00)
GOLDEN ENVY (1) is racing in great form winning back to back races in impressive fashion. All the same, this is another step she has to take, rising to the 510m at Rockhampton. WILMA FLINTSTONE (4) has the speed to challenge her early and both ARNIE FERRARI (2) and SNEAKY PETE (5) should be stronger over the concluding stages. Appears too short as an odds on favourite.
6. Unstable Mable
4. Exploitation
8. Ruxton Flame
1. End Of Tunnel
Betting Strategy
BACK: 6. Unstable Mable (WIN) for 3 units (Rated at $2.00)
UNSTABLE MABLE (6) won two on the bounce in this grade defeating Patriot Cougar and Hara’s Fonzie. She has been unable to lead in her last two starts and has battled on gamely to finish on a few lengths off the winner. BEV BEACH (3) appears to be the only speed source drawn underneath and UNSTABLE MABLE (6) should comfortably get across to second position. Will be the stronger of the duo late.
4. Custard’s Son
3. Such A Life
6. Tip Top Ethics
2. Rocky Burrow
Betting Strategy
CUSTARD SON (4) is the clear class runner of this contest dropping out of a Townsville Cup heat. The drop in distance, short price and squeeze draw don’t appeal. Next.
1. Imprisonment
7. How’s Warren
3. Aston Hayes
4. Rustic Dundee
Betting Strategy
Similarly with race five, IMPRISONMENT (1) drops out of a Townsville Cup heat and is the clear class runner. He should get the job done on pure ability; however, he is way too short to get involved.
1. Suntory Poppy
3. Waikarie Venom
5. Hacienda Dream
2. Swerve
Betting Strategy
WAIKARIE VENOM (3) is the class runner engaged here; however, he isn’t bombproof and there’s good speed in this race from the likes of SUNTORY POPPY (1) and HACIENDA DREAM (5). Happy to let him go around.
5. Paw Valentina
6. Untamed Velocity
1. Barefoot Rogue
3. Unique Ability
Betting Strategy
LAY: 3. Unique Ability (WIN) for 2 units (Rated at $7.00)
No prizes here laying UNIQUE ABILITY (3); however, she appears a major risk coming off a bad fall last fortnight. BAREFOOT ROGUE (1), PAW VALENTINA (5) and UNTAMED VELOCITY (6) all have more speed than her early which will mean she’ll land fourth at best and be required to manoeuvre around runners.
3. Velocity Smolder
4. Edgewood
1. Bright Side
7. Farmor Left
Betting Strategy
Tricky race. BRIGHT SIDE (1) is the dog on the up in this contest; however, has been slow away in recent weeks and wants to get to the middle of the track. EDGEWOOD (4) on the other hand is the ultimate professional; however, he seems to be racing below his best form. VELOCITY SMOLDER (3) enters this race on the fresh side and could lead. Appears over the odds.
5. Riding Solo
1. Farmor Rogue
8. Pelorus
4. Miss Bella Blue
Betting Strategy
RIDING SOLO (5) is the runner to watch here. Hard to dive into an odds on quote with up to four runners set to be in-front of him early.
1. Dream Design
5. Velocity Commit
4. Sirius Todd
7. Tusken Wind
Betting Strategy
BACK: 1. Dream Design (WIN) for 3 units (Rated at $2.00)
DREAM DESIGN (1) cost herself last week beginning slowly and ultimately ran out of time finishing second behind Venetian Blue. She’ll be suited stepping from box one and should get room to move early with FARMOR LEEWAY (2) likely to head towards the middle of the track. Can win from on or off the speed.
