Located close to the William Inglis sales complex is a property – Woodlands Historic Park – now the home to many retired legends. These include Brew, Might and Power, Doriemus as well as many more. Soon to arrive are Apache Cat and Takeover Target.
Once involved in taking many people for a ride at the one time, these horses are now located at Living Legends, Victoria’s racing industry showcase to the public.
Not appearing to have a national stud like England, Ireland or France, Australia has a racing museum and Living Legends. Living Legends offers the opportunity for young and old alike to meet retired racehorses that achieved a noticeable racing career before retiring.
Taking advantage of their close proximity to the Inglis sales complex, the Living Legends inhabitants take a trip down the road at times to be paraded before those attending the yearling or mixed Thoroughbred sales.
Living Legends raises awareness of racehorses, the racing industry and care after racing for those horses that may not be able to go on and breed future equines for racing. To offer your support for such a set up, consider visiting the home of these living legends.
“A racehorse is an animal that can take several thousand people for a ride at the same time.”
