I hope Oxford does not cancel again ...

I have now played twice at Oxford, but the weather has been so hot there has been no water for weeks and the grounds are hard - so Oxford has cancelled a few times. I hope I can play there tomorrow as I have made good progress.
Had great fun riding off my groom Holly this weekend. I think she got the hang of it :-)
Oh Dear! Oh Dear!
Played with Charlotte Sweeney (2) and Rosie Ross (3) through to the finals in the 4 goal for 5 teams , battling it out at Ash Farm's Mid Season Trophy. Pipped at the end by some exceptional play by 4 goaler James Mann playing for Twelve Oaks. Great pros coaching me throughout my first 4 goal. I could have not done it without you ladies. Some stellar umpiring by Tarquin Southwell.
My new groom Holly did an amazing job with Petisa!
I believe I can fly!
It all goes to show there are no certainties in polo ... We were good, but definitely the underdogs. Thanks to the talent of our captain Mack McCaffrey and the team, we were able to put all efforts into winning the Cooper Cup. Exceptional run down and leadership from Mack.
Thanks to Jessica Tomlin for putting me into this amazing team last minute. First tournament and I had no clue what to expect... but we won! Great result thanks to George and the team.
Am absolutely lovin' seeing my old buddies at RCBPC. Thanks to Chris B and Cool Hooves for organising it. The kids love it and its gets us all back in the game!
I never thought I would love grass so much!
... and the girls are not half bad at polo !!! eeek ... better up my game!!
