Balladeer’s Blog continues its coverage of the world’s OLDEST team sport.
The victors and the vanquished on stage after the match.
Mere weeks after winning the Waterbury Cup the storied WHITE BIRCH polo team won the Butler Handicap, clobbering AIRSTREAM by a score of 16-9 in the championship match. The Greenwich Polo Club was the scene of the action.
When White Birch wins my female readers like to see pics of their player Hilario Ulloa.
White Birch rode onto the polo grounds playing like a team possessed on both offense AND defense.
They swatted in 3 goals in the 1st Chukker, an amazing 5 in the 2nd Chukker and 2 more in the 3rd to head into Halftime with an intimidating 10-4 lead over their opponents from Airstream.
From there the outcome was never in doubt and White Birch went on to win the match by a final score of 16 goals to 9. Mariano Aguerre led the victors with 6 goals of his own.

Polo? He is a cute guy, though.
Thanks for commenting!
I like the way you describe polo but I can’t understand it when I watch it.
Yeah, the snobbish announcers don’t always make it clear for newcomers.
Go White Birch!
You said it!
