Race preview
On this third run back after a long layoff, JEROBOAM MACHIN can get his career back on track. A Grade 2 bumper winner, the Emmet Mullins-trained gelding was on the sidelines for over two years before making his return to racing at Fairyhouse over Easter. Well beaten on that occasion, the seven-year-old showed a bit more when fourth at Ballinrobe last time. While he will need to take another step forward to land this contest, there is every likelihood that he can do so. Young Doran, who finished runner-up in that Ballinrobe contest on his racecourse debut, should be all the better for the experience. Withabitofluk could be open to improvement in a first-time tongue-tie.
