From the Maitland Mercury report:
At this time of year the attention of a nation turns to horse racing and Victoria’s spring carnival.
In 2013 the Morpeth Museum is doing the same, but to mark a special anniversary of a town legend.
It has been 100 years since Morpeth-based horse Posinatus won the Melbourne Cup and the museum has created a display to tell his fascinating story.
It is a combination of images, footage, information, replicas and objects such as saddles from a century ago.
