1936 English Greyhound Derby

The winner Fine Jubilee, owned and trained by Marjorie Yate, received a first prize of £1,000.

[1] The opening heat was one of strongest ever experienced, with Ataxy claiming the win in a fast 29.60 from 4-7 shot Fine Jubilee, the 1935 English Greyhound Derby ante-post favourite Curleys Fancy II; Roving Spring was eliminated.

[1] Fine Jubilee impressed with a 29.49 semi-final win by a distance; trouble behind saw Diamond Glory and Raven Arms qualify for the final.

A record crowd of just under 90,000 watched as Fine Jubilee and Curleys Fancy II broke well.

The two vied for the lead as Grand Flight II took a bump which enabled Fine Jubilee to go ahead, he was challenged halfway by Itchok before pulling away and winning by six lengths in 29.48, the fastest time ever recorded in a final.
