Free E-MAG VERSION There are several aspects that I particularly enjoy about being the publisher of Hurlingham. Firstly, the broad range of people I meet and secondly, I have a very good excuse to watch and play polo in the UK and abroad. In the Winter issue emag.hurlinghampolo.com, we cover both of these themes.

In Talk, Bill Clark shares with us his insights on making ponies, a subject he is extremely knowledgeable about given that he has studied it for the last 50 years. Read about his novel approach of trimming the ponies in such a way that they are played without shoes.
Profile sees Harald Link, who is one of the most interesting people I have met in polo, recount his experience of playing in the Veuve Clicquot Gold Cup and underline why it is a must to participate in (even if you do not win a game!) In Features, we celebrate 100 years of polo at the Santa Barbara Polo Club, which has hosted an abundance of Hollywood stars, an English team in 1939 and Prince William and his bride this past July. On www.hurlinghampolo.com we streamed the final of the Veuve Clicquot Gold Cup and the Cartier International. There are 30 minutes of highlights of the games still up on the site, as well as others clips from the action this summer. During the month of July alone there were over one million hits on the website. Best regards
