British Bred Produce Stakes

The British Bred Produce Stakes was a greyhound racing competition held annually at Abbey Stadium.

History It was inaugurated in 1946 at Eastville Stadium in Bristol when it was known as the Western Two-Year Old Stakes. The following year it was renamed the Western Two-Year Old Produce Stakes in order to distinguish the event as a produce event (restricted to puppies from specifically Wales and the West).

The competition was later extended to all regions but remained a puppy event. Following the closure of Bristol in 1997 it switched to sister track Swindon. The event today is open to British Bred greyhounds only. After 2019 the competition was held on the revamped Swindon circuit.

In 2025 Swindon ran the event for the last time, following the imminent closure of track.

Venues 1946–1997 (Bristol-Eastville, 500 yards) 1998–2019 (Swindon, 480m) 2020–2025 (Swindon, 476m)
