FormscanBy Dan McEvoy - JEROBOAM MACHIN (3), an impressive Dublin Racing Festival bumper winner, was sidelined for two years afterward. His recent Galway second to Mr Hollywood in a maiden hurdle was a big step back in the right direction. Emmet Mullins leaves off the tongue tie and cheekpieces, which were applied for the first time on his last start, but the seven-year-old still holds a definite chance on his chase debut. Mickie Angel is nought from eight over fences, but his latest third reads well, and he was sent off favourite in that trappy affair. While exposed, Denis Hogan's gelding can make his experience count here. Jolie Jewel is another who is exposed, but her latest run can be upgraded as she tried to come from the rear at Galway, and with her 7lb allowance, she can complete the frame.
