A great piece of play by El Remanso was thwarted by Ulloa,
the whistle blew and a 60 yard penalty was awarded to the
blue shirts, the resulting high and accurate shot from Beim
increasing El Remanso’s lead to 10-6.
The final chukka opened with Beim winning the ball from the
throw-in; Cudmore was swiftly onto it, making a neat goal
and 11-6. The action remained swift and dynamic. A 60 yard
penalty was awarded to Murus Sanctus which Ulloa sent hard
and straight to score once more.
From the throw-in Ulloa and Podesta tried to outmanoeuvre
El Remanso but Cudmore stole the ball away and made a long
drive. Ulloa raced to intercept it and passed to his patron who
was waiting out in front. A marvellous run all the way to the
goal gave Corinne Ricard a well-deserved hat trick, but too late
to prevent a convincing win by El Remanso on a final score of
11-8.
Clare Milford Haven presented the James Wentworth Memorial
Cup to Charlie Hanbury and prizes to all players were presented
by Lady Milford Haven and Zahra Kassim-Lakha, Director

Playing Pony went to James Beim’s Kimberley. Players and
spectators were invited to join in a Happy Hour following the
match, courtesy of Jaeger-LeCoultre, which was much enjoyed
in glorious evening sunshine.
