After about 7 months or 210 days the SB Polo is moving forward again and it is a new world green grass on the hill sides after a 7 yr, Drought a little bit of water did wonders to the area of the Gold coast and it showed this weekend first big week of polo in SB with the opening of it all and a good one it is the Folded Hills 12 goal sponsored by once Americas Best Amateur Andy Busch . Yes the same Bud Man we all know just dabbling in Wine in a big way . Try IT Folded Hills Vineyard .
Back to polo there are 6 very solid teams and the first round was Friday and it looked like first day little flow and lots of fouls but all survived .
Round one saw Klentner Ranch stopping Geof Palmers Antelope 1 in a big game lots of scoring and comebacks but it was GPalmer in the end going down by a goal . Newcomers Dundas with Sarah Mangess at the helm had there day view in the 12 goal and had a long day as Antelope Jr with young Grant Palmer and his young guns blew out Dundas to go to 1 and 0 Sat . morning the bankers got it on with Henry Walker and his FMB 2 took out a loan and beat Big brother Dan W and FMB1
SUNDAY Polo was played in low 60 degree weather and a bit overcast to say the least but Polo was not foggy or cold .
Game 1 seen Dundas Polo ) and 1 Vs Klentner Ranch 1 & 0 hooking up and it was a nw team as Dundas and Mrs Sarah got in the zone and smoked KR and the ranch hands in a big way to bring them both to 1 and 1.
Game 2 was Dan Waslker and FMB 1 taking on Antelope 1 with GP and his crew with Antelope 1 and getting to the win column as well and get another loss in atight one again but send them to 0 and 2 .
Game 3 was the main game on opening day and the Weather was the same cool cloudy and a bit damp but Polo was hot as Antelope 2 took on Henry Walkers FMB 2 without Henry who is not to happy with a big fat foot damaged heavily on Sat in the last 5 seconds of that win he said and it looks bad and must be he takes after his Dad Mr Ken and he will play if he can get on. They may have needed Henry as a ice cold Ant 2 on goal shots still won 11 shots that missed goal but they made enough to win .
so Friday gets VIP as the way it looks now :
Antelope # 1 is 0 and 2
Antelope # 2 is 2 and 0
FMB # 1 is 1 and 1
FMB # 2 is 1 and 1
Dundas is 1 and 1
Klentner Ranch is 1 and 1

so come on up Friday should be a shoot out and maybe some Sunshine but there is cheap Margaritas to keep u warm if it is not at the clubhouse party 4 pm game .
see ya
