The Juvenile Classic is a greyhound racing competition held annually at the Kingdom Greyhound Stadium in Tralee, County Kerry, Ireland. [1]
It was inaugurated in 2007 and therefore is a relatively new event but due to the significant winners prize money on offer (€15,000 in 2016) it stands as a feature event in the Irish racing calendar. [2] The competition is only open to juveniles.
The 2020 event was cancelled due to COVID-19 and the 2021 event did not produce starting prices because of lockdown restrictions due to COVID-19.
