The Santa Barbara Polo Club hosts championship polo each July & August.

It's high scoring tennis (that's how they determine the playing teams)

This was the best match I've seen; usually polo scores 4-3 , 3-2, etc.

The green/white lead the first three "chukkas" 6-1, white/green finally won 16-11 in the 6th "chukka"

    The last spectator is beautiful and a keeper!
    if mine, I would do tighter pano crop....take some off from bottom and top....especially top as the very bright white area of branch, one third on top left is bit distracting....
    Cheers!

    Thanks Juano... Beautiful yes...

    But look at the pads on top of their hooves...

    They are there to protect the joint above the hoof when they rest on it... Look at the front right hoof...
