Dream Of Words has plenty of weight but this is a very moderate handicap and she won first time back on testing ground last season. Massa Lubrense scored at Dundalk in December but went up 8lb and ran poorly there a month later. Encantador is still a maiden after 15 starts though is rarely beaten far while MY MYSTIQUE has dropped to a fair mark. Ger Lyons' filly, a winner at Dundalk in 2017, showed improved form on her final two starts last summer and the assessor looks to have given her a chance. Reverberation is 9lb higher than when scoring at Dundalk and though Atlas has won around here he seems best at Dundalk these days.
