County Kildare's racing venue — Leinster provincial racing at Friday night
Newbridge Greyhound Stadium in County Kildare runs a Friday-only schedule, serving as the weekly racing outlet for the Kildare and south-west Leinster region. The Kildare area has a strong equestrian tradition thanks to the nearby Curragh, and greyhound racing adds to the county's sporting fabric. Newbridge attracts competitive fields from across Leinster, with trainers from Dublin, Kildare, and Wicklow regularly represented.
The Friday-only schedule makes Newbridge a single-night venue, but the regular competitive racing it provides makes it an important fixture in the provincial Irish calendar. Dogs stepping up from provincial competition towards the bigger Leinster venues often carry useful Newbridge form in their records.

Newbridge runs on a circuit of moderate proportions. The bends are standard for a provincial Irish venue, giving inside-drawn dogs a slight but not extreme advantage. Going conditions vary with the Kildare weather, and heavier ground can shift the balance towards early pace dogs from inside draws.
Newbridge is a fair-to-medium track where performance and class are reliable guides. Fields are competitive for the grade level, and the Leinster training community produces well-prepared dogs. Form from nearby venues — particularly Shelbourne and Harold's Cross (for historical reference) — translates reasonably well.
| Distance | Races | Avg Field | Avg Winner Time |
|---|---|---|---|
| 325m | 89 | 5.9 | 17.65s |
| 525m | 435 | 5.9 | 29.23s |
| 550m | 46 | 6 | 30.30s |
| 575m | 9 | 5.9 | 31.82s |
| 600m | 1 | 6 | 33.18s |
The 525-yard standard trip. A fair test on Newbridge's medium circuit. Performance and class are the strongest predictors.
The 550-yard trip. Extra ground for stayers to shine. A good distance for quality dogs at Newbridge.
How to read this: In a fair 6-runner race, each trap would win ~17% and place (finish 1st or 2nd) ~33% of the time.
Win% = how often this trap produces the winner. Place% = how often this trap finishes 1st or 2nd (standard place bet).
+ / − columns show the difference from fair share — positive means the trap wins/places more than expected, negative means less.
