Burdett Road kept on gamely to run out a well-backed winner of the Unibet Greatwood Handicap Hurdle at Cheltenham and ignite Champion Hurdle dreams for connections.

James Owen’s 7-2 chance powered clear three out along with market leader Dysart Enos and got the upper hand over that rival once turning into the home straight.

Be Aware briefly looked a big danger when coming out of the chasing pack to mount a late challenge, but Harry Cobden was always in control on the Gredley family-owned Burdett Road and they prevailed by half a length.

Trainer James Owen – whose East India Dock impressed on Saturday in the same colours – said: “It was a great performance. Tim (Gredley) and I both agreed that we were going to change tactics, we’ve learnt a lot on the Flat with him this time and we wanted to make the running.
