Count Ceprano won three times last summer and didn't take long getting his head back in front again when scoring at Epsom on his second start of the season. He escapes a penalty here and should make another bold bid, but a chance is taken on JODAWES. He was returning from a five-month absence when fifth at Folkestone recently and there should be more to come from the four-year-old as he drops down a grade. Aviso showed a glimpse of last season's good form when third at Ffos Las last week, while the likes of Trecase and Cane Cat have each-way claims.
