South East England Greyhound Racing Tracks

South East England carries the flag for London and the home counties after Crayford's 2025 closure left Romford as the capital's sole track. With Central Park in Sittingbourne and the famous Brighton & Hove stadium, the region still stages some of Britain's best-attended racing.

Race nights in South East England

Romford races multiple nights a week including its famous Friday and Saturday cards, Central Park stages Friday and Saturday evening meetings, and Hove runs Tuesday, Thursday and Saturday fixtures.

Feature races

Hove's Sussex Cup, Romford's Essex Vase and Central Park's Kent Derby give the region three major opens, with Hove's history — Ballyregan Bob's world record streak — the stuff of legend.

Punting South East England greyhounds

Romford's tight circuit rewards quick trappers and box-one speed; Hove's 515-metre trip tests genuine middle-distance class. Cross-reference southern form carefully — class droppers from Hove to the smaller venues are a proven angle.
