2. Fast ‘n’ Rocking Preview:
Fast ‘n’ Rocking is likely to jump as the favourite for today’s Golden Rose with his odds shortening into their current quote of $5. Fast ‘n’ Rocking broke his maiden status against Group 3 company last start and he will be looking to get a Group 1 win having placed in Group 1 company before.
