The Midlands Greyhound Racing Tracks

The Midlands is the anchor of British greyhound racing, home to Towcester — venue of the modern English Greyhound Derby — plus Nottingham, Monmore Green and Dunstall Park, which from 2026 inherits the region's Category One fixtures after the closure of Perry Barr. Four premier venues within reach of each other make this the deepest racing region in the UK.

Race nights in The Midlands

Towcester races Friday and Saturday evenings around its feature calendar, Nottingham stages Wednesday and Friday nights, Monmore Green runs regular evening fixtures, and Dunstall Park takes over the Thursday and Saturday Category One slots previously held at Perry Barr.

Feature races

The English Greyhound Derby at Towcester towers over the calendar. Around it sit the St Leger and Birmingham Cup — moved from closed Perry Barr to Nottingham for 2025 and on to Dunstall Park from 2026 — plus Monmore Green's Midland Puppy Derby and a year-round programme of premier opens.

Punting The Midlands greyhounds

Midlands form is the benchmark for British racing — Derby trials and heats at Towcester set the national class standard. Watch for Monmore Green form translating reliably to other venues, and for Derby campaigners dropping back into graded company at Nottingham and Dunstall Park.
