The Trafalgar Cup was a greyhound competition for puppies under the age of two.[1] It is the oldest puppy competition in the racing calendar.[2]

It was first contested at Wembley Stadium from 1929[3] until 1998,[4] but when the Wembley Greyhounds ended it moved to Oxford Stadium in 1999 and then on to Monmore Green Stadium in 2015 until 2019.[5]
