We enlarge the dictionary between matrix models for long linear quivers preserving eight supercharges in $d=5$ and $d=3$ and Cereals type IIB supergravity backgrounds with AdS$_{d+1}$ factors.We introduce mass deformations of the field theory that break the quiver into a collection of interacting linear quivers, which are decoupled at the end of the RG flow.We find and solve a Laplace problem in supergravity which realises these deformations holographically.The Acetyl L-Carnitine free energy and expectation values of antisymmetric Wilson loops are calculated on both sides of the proposed duality, finding agreement.With our matching procedure, the free energy satisfies a strong version of the F-theorem.
