The Puppy Derby is a British greyhound racing competition held at Towcester Greyhound Stadium.
Other Puppy Derby races have been created by other race tracks including the Midland Puppy Derby and despite some of these races matching or surpassing the original Puppy Derby for prize money at certain times they do not carry the same prestige.
[4][5] In 2017 the race switched from Wimbledon and the GRA to Towcester and the prize money increased to £20,000 to the winner, bringing the race back to its former glory[6][7] When it switched to Towcester in 2017 it was only held for one year because the track closed and the event was switched to Henlow.
It then reverted to sister track Towcester in 2020, when it re-opened under promoter Kevin Boothby.
The 2022 edition was not held due to problems with the weather and rescheduling.
