The International Arena Polo Test Match at Hickstead saw England defeat the USA, 12-9, ensuring the Bryan Morrison Trophy remained in British hands. The home team featured a blend of youth and experience. Captaining Team England was nine-goaler Chris Hyde, Europe’s highest handicapped arena polo player, who was joined by England debutant Danny Muriel (4), plus Max Charlton, who plays off an arena handicap of six. Max Charlton has already represented England at international level, as he helped England to victory against Argentina last year at London’s O2 Arena. “It’s a great feeling,” said Chris after the match. “There was a lot of pressure on us for this match, after we lost last year in California. But the American’s were a very experienced, disciplined team and they gave us a good game.” USA Team Captain John Gobin won the Most Valuable Player award for his exemplary captainship and great individual plays, whilst the award for the Best Playing Pony went to Caledonia, owned by All England Polo Club member Caio Sorzana and played by America’s John Gobin. Caledonia played for the full six-and-a-half minutes of the penultimate chukka. Photo by imagesofpolo.com,

Catching up:  It looks like in the Fall world champion bull rider Wesley Silcox will be trying his hand at polo.  After visiting with Brent and Sherry Gibson at Rodeo Austin, polo sounded like enough fun that he’s decided to fly in early to play a few chukkers with them and rodeo pickup man Bobby Marriott before the Poway,California rodeo.

Is it true that Goldenvoice, the company behind the successful Coachellafest Music Festival, bought Eldorado Polo Club in California?

Chris Gannon, son of Outback owner Tim Gannon, is behind a new polo charity event in Palm City, Florida called the Charity 1 Polo Classic. Check it out at charitypoloclassic.com

Congratulations to the guys at Cowtown/Work to Ride, who claimed their second straight national interscholastic championship after two rounds in an overtime penalty shoot-out with California’s Eldorado Polo Club.  It was a dramatic end to a dramatic tournament, which saw a strong showing for Poway who upset Midland Texas in the preliminary rounds of play.

On the heels of Coach Vaughn Miller’s first Interscholastic Polo Team’s success at their first tournament with 7th  grader Vaughn Sebastian Miller, 8th grader Ronnie Puentes and 10th  grader Andrew Garcia, he has been asked and accepted to coach the TCU Polo Team.  The only team that beat the Millers Prestonwood Team inHouston’s regional tourney, keeping them from advancing to nationals, was the very experienced Midland Team.  Way to go, all a’y’all!

Wedding bells:  Fergus Gould and longtime girlfriend Lacey Winteron finally tied the knot in California.  We hear there might be wedding bells soon for Pam Gleason and Gary Knolls. Gary gave her a ring… have they set a date yet?

New baby department:  At press time, Deborah and Steve Parry are patiently awaiting the arrival of their firstborn, who is due to make an appearance any day now.  New baby will have arrived by the time you read this.

Bumps and bruises:  Lydia Kolbas broke her wrist in arena chukkers in Sarasota, while Jamie Mirikitani took a spill on the grass during the 8 goal when his horse went down.

❗️George Williams column❗️ The FEI World ❗️George Williams column❗️
The FEI World Cup Final in Omaha is coming up quickly. That means that it’s starting to heat 
up as the end of the qualifying period for both the Western European League (WEL) and the 
North American League (NAL) nears. I started to write this column before the Amsterdam CDI- W, and I was using the FEI Ranking List from January 15 as a reference. As I sit down to finish 
my column, I’m now looking at the results from Amsterdam. While the list of the top contenders 
for the WEL hasn’t changed, they’re definitely moving around on the ranking list. The WEL has 
three more legs, as they’re referred to: Neumünster February 16–19, Goteborg February 23–26, 
and ’s-Hertogenbosch March 9–12, and they could change things dramatically.
Looking at the top 12 athletes from the WEL as they were ranked on January 15, there are five 
from Germany, three from the Netherlands and one each from Great Britain, Denmark

Lisa Goldman-Smolen and Ivaro N strike gold in Gre Lisa Goldman-Smolen and Ivaro N strike gold in Great American $300,000 Grand Prix at HITS Ocala!! 🏆🥇

Crowds filled the stands at the HITS Ocala Grand Prix Ring on Sunday afternoon to watch the world’s top athletes compete in the Great American $300,000 Grand Prix. The day concluded with a thrilling five-horse jump-off featuring athletes 
representing four countries. In the end, it was Lisa Goldman-Smolen (USA) and Ivaro N who produced the only double clear effort of the day, claiming one of the biggest wins of her career. Scott Keach (AUS) and Noble De La Chapelle earned the second-place prize with the fastest 4-fault jump-off, while Aaron Vale (USA) and Obi Wan placed third as the day’s pathfinders.

“I'm still on cloud nine, I still can't believe it – I’ve used up all my luck for the year,” smiled Goldman-Smolen after her win. “I've been knocking on the door a long time in these bigger classes. I am so proud of my horse – he gave every ounce of effort.”

Sunday’s Great American $300,000 Grand Prix marked the conclusion of the 2023 HITS Ocala circuit. HITS CCO Joe Norick concluded, “We are so excited about the new HITS, with 2023 as the launch. New footing, many new arenas here, and a lot of our facilities across America are getting a lot of love and new footing. Our partnerships with Worldly Martin and others across America including our footing leader Bart Poles overseeing our operations – it really makes a big difference for us. Today is about Ocala and these three riders sitting next to me who supported us this entire winter. We want to be a proud destination for our exhibitors and our friends. We know we have to provide them a beautiful showplace to work from that's horseman friendly, and that's our go goal. 

Congratulations to all of the riders, horses, owners, and groom who participated in this prestigious class!!! 🎉

Annette Longenecker wasn’t just born into horses Annette Longenecker wasn’t just born into horses—in a way, she was born into her career. She grew up in Mechanicsburg, Pennsylvania, where her parents ran a farm. Her mother taught, and her father had a jump business and then created one of the first horse show software programs: Ryegate Show Services, Inc.

Riding all her life, Annette spent many years as a groom and loved it, but knew it wasn’t what she wanted to do as a career. After she finished college, Annette’s father recruited her to help process entries at Ryegate. Since her father, Lloyd Longenecker, founded it in 1981, Ryegate has provided show management and office staff for some of the largest shows in the country. Now, Annette has taken over from her father and directed the company as it focuses on managing memberships and rankings for organizations such as the North American League, WIHS Championships and Equitation, Rolex/USEF Computer Ranking and National Medal Series (THIS NCM and Ariat NAM). Ryegate also provides scoring software for use with video walls, and production teams for hunter and jumper shows.

“Besides running Ryegate Show Services and its various organizations, I can be found in the show office, running a scoreboard or judging jumpers at most shows,” Annette said. “I love getting to wear a few different hats at the show.”

When she’s not busy at a show, Annette lives in Annville, Pennsylvania, with her “fur-baby,” Maggie Mae, and enjoys spending time with her many godchildren. Though she doesn’t currently own any horses, Annette rides when she can at Rolling Acres Farm with Patty Foster, Ashley Foster-Worthington and Mary Lisa Leffler.
