Cesarewitch (Irish greyhounds)

This page is about the Irish Greyhound Race. For the British race, see Cesarewitch (greyhounds).

The Cesarewitch is a greyhound racing competition held annually at Mullingar Greyhound Stadium in Ballinderry, Mullingar, County Westmeath, Ireland. ^[1]

It was inaugurated as an Irish classic competition at the Boyne Valley Greyhound Stadium in Navan and took place over 600 yards from 1960-1998. ^[2] However following the closure of the Navan track it switched to Mullingar over the same race distance. ^[3]
