At the Tavistock and District Agricultural Association Show on May 19th, 1902, Dream was entered in a class for Brood Mares, three years old and upwards, (likely to breed a Polo Pony, in foal to, or with foal at foot, by a Thoroughbred or Arab sire, or sire registered in the Polo Pony Stud Book . . . ) She was Commended, in the Class.

Dream then returned to Foxhams and Miss Collier, where the Polo Pony Rockabye was foaled. The Council of The Polo and Riding Pony Society decided in June 1907 to conduct a survey, “To consider the desirability of establishing a Record of the Performances of Polo-Bred Ponies in the Game.” A list of forty playing ponies was duly compiled, Midsummer Night, (Dream’s 1901 foal), was included in this list. All forty ponies, played on the grounds of recognised polo clubs, including . . . North Devon, and Plymouth . . . .(Plymouth and North Devon were the two Grounds noted for Midsummer Night.)
The, “Prices,” realised for these ponies when put up for sale was most satisfactory.
