The Polo Report by Steve Crowder. BTA has been a manstay in U.S. polo for approx. 56 years. Kelly Beal went off to Argentina, a very strong place for polo, and won one of their tournaments. He had Argentine help in the form of Mariano Gonzalez, a familiar face in the U.S. It is a big feat and by all reports the Argies thought Kelly was wild. Well ‘duh.’ Have you ever been to Midland,Texas? Kelly is wild and always happy. His family ranks at the top in supporting polo anywhere they play it.
Little Mac (Frederick Mannix, Jr.) did not play today. There was a horse sale today at Pilar. A colt less than 2 months old out of a famous mare named Luna brought $130,000.00 US dollars. Another less than 2 years old brought in $90 grand. Old blue just went to 50 he is 15 and already plays! Also in the news today World Champion Barrel horse “Scamper” was cloned in August and is doing well as of now. So he was also $150,000.00 dollars, but he made over a million running in the rodeo world. So get ready to rumble. You do not really need to make horses, maybe just buy them ready to play. Sounds good, but is it ?
