Clevedon polo pony becomes internet star after flood rescue effortHOLOLIO POLO CLUB/FACEBOOK Hololio Polo Club ponies rescue themselves from Clevedon floodwaters. A brave polo pony with a curious name has become an internet star after leading a dozen other ponies to safety during a flood. JASON DORDAY/Stuff.co.nz Aerial footage illustrates the extent of flood damage following torrential downpours around Clevedon, south of Auckland. She belongs to Elworthy's stepson Harry Jones who is a professional polo player based between New Zealand and Argentina. Two mobs of polo ponies, about 40 in total, have since been moved to grazing in the nearby suburb of Ardmore until the risk of further flooding has passed.
