The retained rider for Godolphin Australia, McDonald has been riding in England for the past few weeks.

His stay has been extended while another Godolphin jockey, William Buick, serves a 30-day suspension.

McDonald, who has an unassailable lead in the Sydney premiership, expects to be back in Sydney in early August.
