REY DE LA BATALLA hasn't looked back since sent into handicaps and is fancied to rattle off a quick hat-trick despite having a career-high mark to overcome. Both Burdett (second choice) and Cocktail Dress have better days ahead of them too in this company and can ensure Simon Dow's upwardly-mobile colt doesn't have things all his own way.
