Nap of the Day: Have a dabble on 5/2 Dibble on Saturday

There's a strong card at Newmarket on Saturday, but it's day two of Chepstow's Jump Season Opener that steals my attention.
It's at the Welsh venue that a useful hurdler making his chasing debut rates the Nap of the Day.
Nap of the Day - Saturday, October 12
- 14:45 Chepstow - Cuthbert Dibble @ 5/2
The classiest race at Chepstow on Saturday is a Listed novices' chase over 2m3½f, which has attracted a field of just six.
Paul Nicholls' Insurrection tops the 14:45 Chepstow Odds at time of publication, but I don't think he deserves to.
The Ditcheat handler boasts a fantastic record at this meeting over the years, which is often priced in. I think that's the case here.
Insurrection appeals as the type to improve over fences, but nothing he's actually achieved on the track to date justifies him being so short in the betting.
Also, Nicholls has made an uncharacteristically slow start to the season. He's saddled eight (four favourites, two odds-on) in the last three days, resulting in no winners.
He's extremely opposable as far as I'm concerned, and CUTHBERT DIBBLE is a strong fancy to take advantage.
Nigel Twiston-Davies' six-year-old son of Kayf Tara was a highly-progressive hurdler, rising from a mark of 111 in February last year to 140 this April.
His third in the Pertemps at the most recent Cheltenham Festival is arguably the strongest piece of form on offer in this field, and there ought to be even more to come over the bigger obstacles. He looks made for it, as is often the case with this yard's string.
Twiston-Davies is also renowned for having his horses ready at this stage of the season. He's operating at an impressive 32% strike rate in the last fortnight, courtesy of eight winners from 25 runners.
Jonjo & A J O'Neill's Springwell Bay is the main danger, but I hope Cuthbert Dibble will prove hard to beat.
Odds correct at time of publishing.
