Situated in the Tipner area, Portsmouth Greyhound Stadium attracts a large cross-section of people. The young 'Trendy' set rubs shoulders with the traditional dog racing 'purists', giving the distinct feel of its own. The unique layout of the customer facilities give outstanding views of the track. The track opened in 1931 and is probably best known as the track at which legendary trainer George Curtis cut his racing teeth. RACE DAYS Tuesday, Friday and Saturday evenings.
