The Corn Cuchulainn is a greyhound racing competition held annually at Shelbourne Park and was formerly held at Harold's Cross Stadium in the city district of Harold's Cross, Dublin, Ireland. [1]

It is a major competition and is an integral part of the Irish greyhound racing calendar. [2] The competition was known as the Sean Kelly 750 in 1980. [3]

In 2017 following the closure of Harold's Cross the race was switched to fellow Dublin track Shelbourne Park.[4]
