My first Polo pony - pic

Hi All, I played polo all summer coached by my Argentinian pro. Fell in love with the game and here's my first polo pony. I'm off to Argentina in November to get 3 more ponies, train with pro's for 3 weeks and hope to improve my game.
I know this is not an "X' topic, but just wanted to share my joy... Here is Gucha. my first polo pony.

Very cool! I tried playing polo back in my pony club days, but I'm left-handed.

Cheers,
Forgot to mention her condition. She is in perfect shape. I played quite a few chukkers on her. She is extremly intuitive, smart, see's the ball at all times and is very powerful. It took a lot of training to be able to handle her. Her tendons are fine as I got her vetted before buying.
Big Easy, you haven't played in a while??? Get on a horse and PLAY! How long have you been playing? ANy tips for a new player?
I am so sad the polo season is over

By the way guys, I'm pretty good at this game too
