The Oaks is an original classic greyhound competition, now held at Belle Vue Stadium. It was run at White City Stadium from 1927 until 1958, it moved to Harringay Stadium in 1959–1987 and then to Wimbledon Stadium in 1988. In 2013 the Greyhound Racing Association decided to move the event to sister track Belle Vue.
