and so are a couple of other teams but it was a brilliant day for polo sunny in the low 80’s and so nice for a change but the polo got hot early with almost a major upset to start the day as Mansour took Audi to the barn and tried to finish it in OT but it was not to be as Marc and the Redhead are still in the runnin to defend their title of 2008 and Big Ben goes to 1 & 1 as well as Audi. In Game 2 it was Valiente valiantly trying to stop the leak of L,s by their name and I hear for a moment they had a chance but Grants Farm woke up and left on the run asap in the 6th . The first afternoon game was ERG vs Lucchese and it had some moments a young Player from New Mexico Alex Coquesh filled in for John Muse and did a brilliant job coming from the hills of Santa Fe he did very well . Congragulations to Alex this is a whole new world for him and he did it.It was not enough as he was on the losing end and now Lucchese and Valiente are out of the running for the title . ERG came out with revenge on their minds as Lucchese knocked them out of the last finals and in a very wild and mildly officated game it was ERG getting the win by a couple in the battle of Texans . The final game of the day was Zacara taking on Patagone and it was a very close game the last 1/2 trouble is Patagones had a 4 goal lead to start the 2nd half and Gonzalo continued to surprise me with his maneuvers on the field he does understand the game their was a play in the 5th when Miguel Astrada former 10 goal star had his sights set on a ball that Gonzalo had taken and he looked back seen no pass and said no way hose and hit it out of bounds just like that . It looks like Sunday will be ahuge day and it starts early and someone will need someone else to help them . Here is a Sunday look .
