I don't notice any bias from him in the race calls I've heard of his regarding Rosario.

And he's a sometimes over the top announcer who has shown a clear rooting bias in a few of his major race calls before... not that other announcers don't.

His call of Hal Hope's Florida Derby win, Lava Man's 3rd Gold Cup win, and one of Azeri's HP wins as extreme examples ... though the first two were great races won by very likeable horses ... in the latter one, he was dropping the best traits of greats like Ruffian, Personal Ensign, and Lady's Secret while Azeri was beating Tropical Blossom in fairly workmanlike fashion.
