They put down £400 to equip the land ready for greyhound racing and opened for business on 21 June and invited privately owned greyhounds to chase a hare driven by an old Ford car engine. The venture only lasted one year because the landlord increased the rent, doubling it to £4 a week which resulted in the decision to move the greyhound operation. Later £600 was raised which enabled Leggett to build a new track with a stand in a field within Belle Vue Meadow adjacent to the <a href="/wiki/London_and_North_Eastern_Railway" title="London and North Eastern Railway">London and North Eastern Railway</a> line. The new site was on the south side of the London Road opposite the original venue north of the London Road. It included a hand-operated <a href="/wiki/Tote_board" title="Tote board">totalisator</a> and electrically operated hare. The first meeting took place on 20 September 1931 with regular attendances in excess of 1,000 frequenting each meeting.<sup id="cite_ref-3" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-3"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>3<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> </p><p>In 1935 four new directors including Fred Leaney and Michael Pohl joined the original directors and an extra £17,000 investment followed which allowed the track to turn to be converted into a stadium.

Before work got underway at Dagenham, Arthur Leggett decided that he was going to bring cheetah racing to the UK. Twelve cheetahs arrived from <a href="/wiki/Kenya" title="Kenya">Kenya</a> in December 1936 courtesy of explorer <a href="/wiki/Kenneth_Gandar-Dower" class="mw-redirect" title="Kenneth Gandar-Dower">Kenneth Gandar-Dower</a>.

The experiment failed, with just one further race held; the racing stopped because although the cheetahs were able to better the greyhound times they had to be let off first when racing greyhounds and when they raced against each other they lost interest and stopped chasing the lure.<sup id="cite_ref-5" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-5"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>5<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup><sup id="cite_ref-Times_6-0" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-Times-6"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>6<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> </p><p>With the new Dagenham opening in 1938 Leggett next introduced a new event to Romford in 1939 called the <a href="/wiki/Essex_Vase" title="Essex Vase">Essex Vase</a>. The stadium consisted of the main grandstand on the home straight that featured the Seniors Club and on the back straight was another stand and the Junior Club within. The paddock was on the third bend with the racing kennels and the Racing Managers office. Between the first two bends sat the totalisator and general office, the press office was on the first bend and there was a very unusual Racing Managers box in the middle of the centre green. The track was 380 yards in circumference with distances of 460 & 650 yards and an 'Inside Sumner' hare. The resident kennels were situated in Heaton Grange, 24 acres of ground off Straight Road to the north-east of Romford.<sup id="cite_ref-Genders_1981_4-1" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-Genders_1981-4"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>4<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="Post-war_history">Post-war history</h3><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Romford_Greyhound_Stadium&action=edit&section=7" title="Edit section: Post-war history"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <p>The Essex Cup was discontinued after 1949 for fifteen years and the Racing Manager in the fifties was Les Cox. The Director of Racing Michael Pohl died in 1959, his son Michael J. Pohl Jr. was the assistant to Cox. Trainers attached to the track during this time were Peter Hawkesley, Bill Riley, Bob Thomson and Hubert Gray. George 'Bunny' Gough, former Racing Manager of <a href="/wiki/Powderhall_Stadium" title="Powderhall Stadium">Powderhall Stadium</a> & Harringay Stadium, joined the track replacing Cox as Racing Manager in the early 1960s but the fallout from the 'Dagenham Coup' was felt by Romford Stadium Ltd in 1965 with the legal costs incurred by Romford Stadium Ltd finally being paid by the off-course bookmakers. It was the end for Dagenham as the company sold the track for £185,000 to a packaging business.<sup id="cite_ref-NGRC_7-0" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-NGRC-7"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>7<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> </p><p>Training appointments towards the end of the decade and start of the 1970s included John Coleman and Terry Duggan and in 1975 a second feature event was added to the tracks portfolio when they introduced the <a href="/wiki/Romford_Puppy_Cup" title="Romford Puppy Cup">Romford Puppy Cup</a>.

John Sutton was brought in as the managing director, Gough was promoted to general manager and Des Nichols (who was RM in 1975-6 and again in 1978 with Sydney Wood in the interim) were racing managers. Coral's signalled their intent by buying Brighton & Hove to double their track assets and preventing Ladbrokes from increasing their group, the latter had been a serious bidder for the two tracks at the same time.<sup id="cite_ref-NGRC_7-2" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-NGRC-7"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>7<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> </p><p>In 1977 local bitch 'Go Ahead Girl' recorded 17 consecutive wins for Duggan and one year later with Corals and Ladbrokes now owning seven tracks the payments for BAGS racing to the <a href="/wiki/National_Greyhound_Racing_Club" title="National Greyhound Racing Club">National Greyhound Racing Club</a> ended.
