FIT FOR EQUINE ROYALTY THE MOST MAGNIFICENT PRIVATE THOROUGHBRED TRAINING CENTRE IN THE SOUTHERN HEMISPHERE. There could be no better place to train thoroughbred racehorses than Macedon Lodge. It truly is the ultimate for location, facilities and attention to detail, Macedon Lodge reigns supreme. Only 45km from the central business district, it s easy to see why Melbourne s affluent elite built their summer retreats in the Mount Macedon area. The countryside is stunningly beautiful. And because of its higher altitude, it has cooler summer temperatures and more reliable rainfall, which is perfect for the grand gardens and 19 th century mansions that dot the landscape. It s also perfect for training thoroughbred racehorses. That s why Lloyd Williams, the man behind the visionary development of Melbourne s world-class 510,000m2 Crown Casino, decided it was the ideal place for his training centre. Here Williams invested all his drive and passion for Horse Racing towards transforming the 300 acre complex into a training centre fit for equine royalty. One look at Macedon Lodge and you can see just how well he succeeded.

IF HORSES COULD TALK PREPARATION, CONDITIONING AND WELLBEING THE SECRET TO SUPERIOR RACE PERFORMANCE. From a stable that has had winners in all the great Australian racing events, including three Melbourne Cups, the performance of horses trained at Macedon Lodge speaks much louder than words. Not only are the world-class facilities exceptional, they re proven to produce major race winners. Macedon Lodge can accommodate 80 horses in training at one time. There are 25 grass day yards, and another 20 spelling paddocks. A 75 metre saltwater swimming pool, as well as an 8 horse water walker, 12 horse walkers, treadmills, solariums and showers provide a range of high-level fitness and wellbeing therapies. But of course, thoroughbreds are born to run, so Macedon Lodge has 15 kilometres of tracks and trails, all skilfully designed to ensure maximum training flexibility all year round. These include a 1600 metre uphill gallop track that rises 40 metres through the middle of the complex and a 1000 metre oval track, both with a Proride surface. Another 13 kilometres of slow work tracks and trails are integrated into the 120 hectare property. Every element of Macedon Lodge has been purpose-built to enhance the wellbeing and preparation of the thoroughbreds that train here. And the results they have achieved say more than words ever can.

AN OBSESSION WITH EXCELLENCE In a sport where the length of a nose can be the difference between becoming a part of history or being totally forgotten, little things matter. At Macedon Lodge, those little things have been constantly assessed and reassessed. Thousands of hours have been spent rethinking and refining every aspect of the training centre, with significant ongoing investment made to ensure it remains at the absolute pinnacle of the industry. Tracks were adjusted, new facilities built, the landscape sculptured and trees planted. Nothing was overlooked. Staff are accommodated in 5 flats, 2 semi-detached homes, a caretaker s flat and a proprietor s apartment above the main stables. If it was needed it was done. No expense has been spared. For over five decades, Lloyd Williams has been Australia s biggest and most successful owner. Having raced horses of the calibre of Mahogany, What a Nuisance, Just a Dash, Zipping, Efficient and Green Moon, he has been in the unique position of being able to garner advice from the world s great trainers and equine professionals. That knowledge paired with great passion has helped make Macedon Lodge what it is today. This obsession with excellence and attention to detail is all about one thing: delivering superior performance. Even if, sometimes, just by the length of a nose.
