Golden Crest

The Golden Crest was a greyhound racing competition held annually at Poole Stadium.

It was inaugurated in 1937 at Eastville Stadium in Bristol. Eastville closed in 1997 and the event was suspended until Poole resurrected it in 2000.

With the closure of the track on 22 September 2020 the competition was discontinued.
