THERE WAS THUNDER IN INDIO, CA TODAY it started early and never quit until the light of day denied any more polo. At 10 A.M. it was a hard-riding Jenny Luttrell leading the way as Cottrerel Farms blew out the den of Kentfield. Also at 10 a.m. it was Park Lane getting a big jump on the two-day aggregate of scores over the 2-day competition as they lead by 3 going into Sunday. Then at 12 noon it was Double Eagle and Vladimir Rivkin dropping the hammer on JHHE as they head to the Bronze round. In a real seat-turner it was Rancho Amistad in a barn burner vs. Generation Motors. This game was a cliffhanger from the 2nd chukker on as a hard-riding Mr. Smooth (Curt Hughes) and team fought the Ranch to the end it. Ms. Anier put the kill in with less than 30 seconds to go in the end as she drilled a back shot through the goal. The 4-Goal/4 Chukker Bronze goes to GENERATION MOTORS. Then we headed over to field 3 where it was expected to be a real brawl. There were 3 Galindos and Ronai White vs. The Super B’s (Bilo Zarif and Bolko Kissling) and a little “Thunder From Down Under” (Dirk Gould) and a Palomino (Jason Crowder) on the move. It was a destruction of the Casa Blanca Empire, not a burning. Casa Sombres/Summerland destroyed them early and often. Casa Sombres/Summerland now heads to the finals vs. the Big Mac and Mini (Fred Mannix, Sr. and son Julian) where life will get a lot stronger and tougher in the pit.
Casa Blanca was never in the game after the 2nd chukker. It was 4 and 0 and they did come back in the second, but it was a short time. Casa Combres/Summerland was at one time up by 8. It was a long day for Mr. Dudley and this slaughter happened with Casa Sombres/Summerland fouling 20 times and yes most were du_ _ fouls, but it kept the score closer. Sunday there are some good games. We have 3 matches for Bronzes. At 10 a.m. its Fish Creek/Hawks who are undefeated scheduled to play the Double B’s (Casa Sombres/Summerland) for a nice riderless bronze. The loser gets a nice looking plaster polo player. One day the Club is selling for a 100 million dollars and the next day we are buying $100 trophy’s with no bathrooms for the general public outside the club house. There is no where to cry.
In the 4 goal/ 6chukker on field 1 the real deal . . pay less get more. If its in the 4, PoloBARN.com and Double Eagle hook up. In this match it will be the Desert Doctor (Henry Randazzo) and the Paneo’s taking on a handful as they meet the hard-riding Double Eagle Patron Vladimir Rivkin. He is a rookie looking only up, so get ready to rumble. In the featured match its Mr. Smooth (Curt Hughes) coming back for a Double Bronze as this team is called Friendly Chevrolet. They have Augi Doggie (Agustin Zavaleta) running the show, but they will be dealing with Dandy Dan Horn and the unbeaten Palm Desert squad . Palm Desert has nothing but wins this year to date! The sun will be out and it will be 60 degrees warmer than last Sunday and no football. So come on OUT to POLO. See ya.
