- Enjoy convenient facilities including carparks and public toilets, ensuring a comfortable visit for all.
- Marvel at the craftsmanship of local artist Ken Martin, capturing the essence of Australia's highest stakes-earner.
Makybe Diva became the first horse to win the Melbourne Cup on three consecutive occasions (2003, 2004, and 2005). 2005 also saw her win Cox Plate, making her the highest stakes-earner in Australian horse racing history, with winnings of more than AUD14 million. She is one of only five horses to have won the Cup more than once, and the only mare among the list of multiple winners.
Owned by Tony Santic, one of the iconic tuna fishermen of Port Lincoln, he was a British-bred but Australian-trained horse. The impressive life-sized replica of the famous horse was designed by local artist Ken Martin.
