Name Origin:
Stroller was a Bay gelding who was the only pony to compete at the Olympics in Show Jumping. He stood about 14.1 hands. He was a member of the British team who competed in the 1968 Olympics in Mexico, ridden by Marion Coakes. Bill Steinkraus and Snowbound won the Gold Medal while Marion and Stroller won the Individual Silver Medal, only four faults behind Steinkraus. Stroller jumped one of the only two clear rounds in the Olympic individual championship. In 1967, Marion rode Stroller to victory in the Hickstead Derby, the only pony to have ever won this event. This partnership won the Wills Hickstead Gold Medal, for points gained in the major events during the year, for five years consecutively from 1965 to 1970. Stroller was the grand age of 20 when he won the 1970 Hamburg Derby. The pair won 61 international competitions. He was a crossbred horse, by a Thoroughbred sire out of a Connemara pony mare. Stroller died of a heart attack at the high age 36 in 1986, after 15 years of happy retirement. He is buried at Barton-on-Sea Golf Club, New Milton, Hampshire, England.

About Veema Eggs

Snow clouds seem to perpetually follow Veema eggs. So if you see snowflakes in the hottest of summertime, it may mean that a Veema egg is nearby.

About the Veema Creature

Veemas are perpetually followed by snow clouds that send beautiful ice flakes down to surround them. As you might expect, this requires the air flow to be quite cold around Veemas. So if you ever experience a rush of cold air, it may not be an indicator that something bad is about to happen; it may just indicate that a Veema is nearby and approaching.

Sadly, Veemas frequently die during the summer months because they can only live healthy in low temperatures. If you're the proud owner of a Veema, ensure that your air conditioning is cold enough in the summertime (and consider a large-size, industrial freezer for your Veema to sleep in).
