A late burst down the inside saw CHEEKY DEVIL pick up her maiden victory at only her third start in the Lance Lawson 1230m. The promising 3yr old filly by Contributer was patiently ridden by apprentice Joe Nishizuka.

Dixie & Rosie received nearly as much attention as the horses during our open days! They’ll definitely be keen for another one next year! 🐕 .

We opened our gates for two great days of Open Days. It was wonderful to see people enjoying hanging out with the horses (they definitely got their fair share of carrots to last a week)! And to show them some Equine Dental and Equine Treadmill demonstrations. Plus the equicizor was a hit with the kids. Thank you all for attending! See you again next year!

We are hosting National Thoroughbred Week FRIDAY and SUNDAY🐴. Drop in anytime between 9.30am - 12.30pm. Register online at www.nationalthoroughbredweek.com.au or register onsite at Monacurragh Lodge.

Come meet our very spoilt retired racehorses, sprinters Vigor Winner and Magnum. And our recently retired hurdler English Gambler!

We have a treadmill demonstration, a horse exerciser to show your track work skills on! Walk through the property and see our happy horses sunning themselves in their downtime. Carrots 🥕 are their favourite snack so they will be very happy if you fed them a few.

Also loads of activities for kids so bring them along!
