There was some talk about this in another thread a while back I just happened to drive past it to day and looked up the info In case you don’t know, here is some basic info about it: Living Legends, has been established to bring retired champion horses back to the public. It is situated at Woodlands Historic Park, an ideal location for a family outing or day trip. Living Legends is home to some of Australia's finest retired racehorses, including Fields of Omagh, Might and Power, Saintly, Sky Heights, Brew, Better Loosen Up, Rogan Josh, Doriemus, and Paris Lane.
Living Legends is open to the public on Wednesdays, Saturdays and Sundays from 9:30am to 4:00pm. Located just north of Melbourne Airport

Hi, I am passionate about this... They cant get funds as in an entrance fee, as is it in Govt land, BUT the govt ..ROB HULLS... you are very silent now, promised them $200,000 to keep them going... but of course, that was when the photos were going... they have given NOTHING. So upset, these gorgeous horses just need a little bit of the Unreal funds $40mill for the Grand Prix.. etc. What a joke, I am sure people would love to pay to see the horses, but due to this govt thing they are not allowed to charge admission... How sill y is that ??? Please people, these absolutley fabulous horses need our support,.... We need someway to support them, they have done the wonderful things that we have all loved.... NOW they need our help. The Stallions are all looked after, the mares, also, but thes wonderful geldings who have given all of us so much pleasure.. Its up to us.... COME ON ALL US OF US WHAT CAN WE DO.....

COME ON ALL US OF US WHAT CAN WE DO..... Don't worry about the entrance fee. Just go out there and place some money in the donation box and register your name. It is fully tax deductable. I have been out there a few times and have seen the champs. Make the effort people. Its worth it!!
