Serenity’s Feyre
Big, solid 16h Connemara/Thoroughbred cross mare with an excellent brain and a bright future ahead.
By Connemara stallion, Foothills Field Marshall and out of the Thoroughbred mare Jodie Faster by Empire Way.�Born April 18, 2022.
Started slowly and correctly with a strong focus on confidence and correct basics. She is comfortably walk, trot, canter under saddle and recently started over small fences, showing herself to be brave and willing—happily jumping over astroturf, flowers, and other fillers without hesitation.
She is a cute mover with a solid build, making her a lovely prospect for the future. This mare has a good brain, willing attitude, and a great start that will make her a fun partner to bring along.

Stroller - The one and only lion hearted pony.

One of the greatest of all time, Stroller who stood 14 hands 2 inches was one of the most incredible fairy tales in the history of show jumping. He and Marion Coakes-Mould took the show jumping world by storm and won everything that a dream team could ever imagine. In 1958 Stroller was registered with the B.S.J.A. and that year won the Junior Foxhunter competition at the Ascot Jumping Show.

In 1961, Marion's farther Ralph Coakes bought Stroller from Sally Cripps. This was to be the beginning of an amazing journey that would take Marion and Stroller to the very top of world championship show jumping. The crowning glory of this incredible partnership was when they won the individual Silver Medal at the Mexico Olympics in 1968 behind American Bill Steinkraus riding Snowbound who took the Gold Medal.

Stroller and Marion's career together is a book in itself. Their victories included the Hickstead Derby, two Queen Elizabeth Cups, Leading Show Jumper of the Year, numerous national championships, the Ladies World Championship and many appearances on Nation Cup teams.

Here is a wonderful photograph of Stroller looking absolutely incredible during his retirement at Marion's farm in Lingfield, Surrey. He was a crossbred horse, by a Thoroughbred sire out of a Connemara pony mare. Stroller died of a heart attack at the incredible age of 36 in 1986, after 15 years of happy retirement. He is buried at Barton-on-Sea Golf Club, New Milton, Hampshire, England, the former home of Marion.

Harvey Smith with Paddy McMahon wrote the forwards on my book, the Golden Age of Show Jumping. Christmas is here, the time of giving, please consider my two books. To buy the book of the Golden Age of Show jumping your local book shop will order it for you or just go direct to Amazon or Barnes & Noble, thank you! While there, you can also pick up my children's book, Toby Rogue. This wonderful book of a mischievous little Shetland pony has many five star reviews already on Amazon.
