Posted by Alex Suarez Lynch at 2:14 PM
In a close match, Ellerstina 15 La Alegria 14
in the final chukker La Alegria lost after giving battle to Ellerstina, saved by his gem Polito Pieres.
After a cool start La Alegria gain confidence to lead in the final chukkas but with a Hilario Ulloa injured during the match, cant close the match when they where in front. He practically disappeared in the worst moments for his team.
Lost in the final minutes do to an extraordinary Polito that appears when the things get difficult do to his abilities as a skillful young polo player and his understanding with his wonder horse ESCONDIDA EMPER (EMPEROR JONES (DANZIG) AND MISS SECRET BY NUMEROUS (MR PROSPECTOR), TB born in Argentina Breeder Haras Firmamento.
With the same horse he manage to lead the team for the success in the Hurlingham tournament against La Alegria, after Facundo Pieres was injured and was replaced.
Again Polito leaded his team to win the semifinal game, and in a colorful information was a teammate and scorer for La Alegria years ago.

How to win over La Dolfina 2017 version
1. Maintain a constant level in the horses selection of all chukkers in a running pressure game.
2. Understand the game plan used by La Dolfina to use long shots to open field to used there curve speed
3. after many games Pablo Mac Donough is not having his best year through this advantage the next team can explode this weakness.
4. Juan Martin Nero is the most dangerous player of La Dolfina with better list of horses and in an incredible confidence year.
5 If you don't posses the way to block the long shots to goal after the reach the 60 yards mark, you will face a difficult time do to this new face after they use the "open sector" to start attacks trough the center field or the option to shoot to the goal.
The constant quality of there list is the key factor for there game that give them the possibilities to perform a running gamer against lesser quality horses.

From others garden recharged
You must make your own mistakes.
Buy proven sport mares with ancestors that had not exactly been sitting still.
A method: outcrossing followed by inbreeding. By outcross I mean the introduction of foreign blood by means of a proven sire. Then we start crossing them with each other, in fact I always prefer to call this line breeding rather than inbreeding. We are now in the process of realizing stages 4 to 5 a further outcross with a common combination.
This is followed by the second line breeding phase. The products are sharply selected on desirables quality, we only breed on the best of them. That is how the bioindustry produces more milk or eggs than the predecessors. A disadvantage with horses is that development takes much longer.
Selection first approach: Pedigree, Conformation, and lose schooling looking for the natural motion (body position, stride, etc).
When looking for a convenient mating, mainly consider the descent of both mare and sire, which must be of flawless pedigree and noblest blood.
Beauty is no held as high as pure blood and performance, they prefer a hardy and strong sire who is known to be fast and has no major defects to any stallion of the far more striking beauty, of which performance they are not sure. (1851 Jager)
Preserve their perfections not to impose the breed, no bad habits, little importance in conformation but great deal to pure descent because they guarantee outstanding qualities.
Cross breeding in earlier generations are less to adapt.
In Constitution find: Hardiness, Endurance, Character and Intelligence.
He is a very perfect animal, he is not large here and small there. There is a balance and harmony through his frame not seen in the other horses.
The quintessence of all good qualities is a compact form.
The importance in the Gallop: Galloping in such regular pace and easy stride than the Prince would say his rider was able to sleeping and low.
Look for Character, that means: Courage, High spirit, Vitality and Gentleness, rather than beauty.
Quiet temper plus natural balance, gives pleasant ride.
The expression of the eyes is like a woman in love (Prince Badr)
The concept: A Family Mare.
Best horse? Black the beauty, Chesnut the speed , a small leggy Grey mare, Happiness and Prosperity – and Good Luck!!
Walk to sedate, Gallop, long and slow.
Above all my recommendation is to devote great care to broodmare their backs are seats of honor and their bellies are inexhaustible treasures (Ammo 1834)
Paradise on earth is found on the back of a good horse, in the story of good books or between the breasts of a woman (a Thales)
Those who forget the lessons of the past are condemned to repeat them.
Buy or Hold proven mares, no age.
Behind every great horse is an excellent mare.
Make a honest look.
Blue blooded mares, up to 12 so in special care and number not out of hand, near a river, out form the road use only a half of land rest or give to local farmers, stable the mares and yearlings, all mares comes in different sizes , sire to each individual, create your own family roots, have a little luck.
See the Power, size ribs and great forelegs.
Create a quality control method with constant improvements, like new info knowledge about genetics and technological advances
Upon this all will test on a clever and important measurements of all individuals to intent to purchase.
Measurements / Class Pedigree Aptitude Conformation.
It’s a process with unique quality individuals that are similar in size, temperament aptitude and class. Regularly all classic horses come from this.
Old saying: Its pedigree tell us what an animal ought to be and its performance tell us what “appears to be” but its progeny tell us what an animal is.
Birth date, conformation and an extraordinary second mare.
Hear everybody around like grooms, trainers in this order, ask for extraordinary behavior (rest, eats, jog temperament in and out the works or the training field)
Find clues as a great heart over lameness or gallop like on a wheel chair or wildlings to fight.
Its not enough to be good one must do it in the right way.
Aging and Genetics:
Sperm divides itself 33 times a year, over 3 decades, about 660.
Changes molecular structure, reason why the gray hair appears.
Best mares produce between 5, 6 and 7 year of age.
Most production between 5 to 10 years of age, Seatle Slew (5+4/ 9)
No great mares more than 17 to 30 in combination with the age of the sire, examples Forego (6+11), Cigar (8+7) Seabiscuit (6+6) Ribot (11+10)
Sire of Sires Average: 7.6+8.4 or 8.6+7.4
Northern Dancer (6+3) Sadlers Wells (19+5) Storm Cat (4+6)
Bayacoa, 6+9
Paseana, 5+9

Catch up of the current triple crown Polo season in Argentina
Hurlingham Final
18-15 La Dolfina over Ellerstina, won its fifth argentine polo championship in a row.
As known La Dolfina won in an erratic show of its scorers efficiency in the first chukkas, a little help form the referees *bad as usual, for both parties, in the Hurlingham Final, but without
Ellerstina in one word, is in the mist, without its horses superiority, needs more about Facundo Pieres and the teammates, some ideas where given in my previous remarks.
First two games in the Argentine Open that I saw
In one of the warnest days in Argentine history for the season *spring with a high humidity, due to the activities of El Nino, the first games of both days where played under extreme conditions for the public, the players and their horses, is one of the things to take care in the future by the organizers.
Ellersrtina won over Chapaleufu, in field Two, but with signs of the same problems in the field as in the other tournaments, against a practical senior polo player team with great will and efforts of former argentine open winners, than current actuality, but shows the weakness of the other team for moments.
The actions for moment was amazing but with the limitations of the field due to a not very eficient conditioning planing of the field *to dry and to muddy in some places!, that cost the lamness of some horses, another thing to be put in examiniation by the organizer.
The games on field One, the Grandstand, I saw.
Both games shown the difference of the game when good players are mounted on good argenine TB horses against the current polo argentino breed, this great differences could be made just with that but curretly they dont posses the quantity to perform in these high standard make them to reuse their best horses *usualy TB , without a current knowledge to how to use them more efficient way.
The problem for these teams are the way how they reuse their horses and the luck of the quantity of good horses, that was the same problem these teams shown in the other tournaments against La Dolfina and Ellerstina after they made excelent performance in the first chukkas they played with them.
Theres a problem to be solved in the field One, near the 30 and 40 Yard mark of the goal posts next to the clock area, that made some shots be erratic due , to the irregulararity of the field *shows a little to sandy , that cost too many problems for the players mostly in all actions played within this area in both games.
La Aguada ICBC won over a team of new kids in the block like Magual Prodigy Network, 12 a 10 in a difficult and effort match for the former argentine open champion.
La Aguada ICBC Chukka & score- results: 1-1, 2-3, 4-4, 5-5, 7-7, 8-8, 10-8, 12-10
Nice Video of the match from ESPNargentina
http://espndeportes.espn.go.com/videohub/video/clipDeportes?id=deportes:2232176
In an incredible match LA-Las Monjitas lost against Alegria *the last runner-up of the last year argentine open, to the reused factor and some unlucky in some actions in the last two chukkas specially in the unhit backhand of Eduardo Novillo Astrada Jr. near Dorrego Stand side in the last minutes of the last chukkas that could made Alegria revive to equalize the game *after they where losing in game for more than six goals in the first chukkas, and the revival of an great player in a bad day like Hilario Ulloa in those chukkas too.
Alegría Assist Card Chukka & score- results: : 0-1, 0-3, 1-6, 4-6, 4-8, 6-8, 7-9, 11-11 , 12-11
Polito Pieres poor day in the field and underform *in a national magazine Noticias, shawn in Night Clubs until late hours, etc. ..

Yesterdays action highlights Ellerstina 15-12 against LA-Las Monjitas
http://espndeportes.espn.go.com/videohub/video/clipDeportes?id=deportes:2237990
With the changes made *asked in my remarks before, as the expected the results was showing with a reborn Ellerstina at last, against one of the best argentine polo temas with former polo payer chamipions.
In its best form i the first 5 chukkas, Facundo, Gonzalo, Nicolas Pieres as 3 and Ignatius du Plessis as4 *in sustitution of an injured Mariano Aguerre from last match against Chapaleufu.
Facundo Pieres -illness possible stomach virus, stop him and his teammates in the last chukkas after being the player he is, in his best form.
More remarks the coming days.

Hurlingham Final next Saturday again La Dolfina-Ellerstina -year match 2-
Due to the some luck (always needed) and the the amazing horses lot, of each of the finalists they are in a new Final this year.
Saturday La Dolfina 13 - Alegria 12
High temperature and high humidity the field (Number 1) was good (to improve little dry in zone areas near the main stand)
La Dolfina won its match but with some doubt about its way to shown its superiority, when the other team are well mounted and they install pressure in the ball carriers , as shown with in other matchs like the first match played in the Asociacion for this tournament in the first part of the match 6-5 with the juvenile team of Miramar the other week.
La Dolfina (same as Ellerstina) is not showing today, the horses superiority of other years becausse that other teams posses some nice new horses (mostly are TB), than before, but with the small selection of them play against there performance when they play them in the repetitions in the last chukkers.
This is the main reason becasuse the matchs are finishing so close this year.
It must be remembered also that the best horses appears in the Argentine Open, but they are starting to be used with some limits in action in Hurlingham or being used so solve the game like this weekend.
Cambiaso played with discomfort due to an lumbago ache that coudnt press well the left stirrup.
Ther main goal for La Dolfina is to achive a new Triple Crown victory this year, and still undeafeat after its last 18 matchs...
In my opinion in the middle of the season, the things are not the same as the pasing years, its more equal the teams is not playing at its peak but still wining because of the quality of players, horses and the aid of some luck.
Nice video of the match (in spanish)
Saturday Ellerstina 14 - La Aguada 12
High Temperature little hot breeze -field condition ok (must improve condition after the weekend atchs before the coming rains this week)
Ellerstina won due to there analysis of game and the different options of selection when decide to play the really good horses they posses in the last 3 chukkers that gave them the return ticket to the new final,
Gonzalo Pieres leads the team in the last 3 chukkers, when mounted his best horses, made de difference and shown the way to his teammates that was not playing well again.
Infront of them La Aguada, the former team of the Family Novillo Astrada, that as the last years needed some changes and this year with a mature Facundo Sola and Guillermo Caset (two coming stars) will give more than a headache to anyone needs some words from the bench to not to desesperate in the closing chukkers and a better horse lot selection.
In my opinion Ellerstina must improve in the long shot to goal department and see if Mariano Aguerre can play as 4 and leave the the problems to the rest with Nicolas Pieres in number 3.

As last year La Dolfina Champion again in Tortugas Open
La Dolfina 14 Ellerstina 8
In an nice mild temperature day La Dolfina dominate Ellerstina, due mainly to a better shaped condition of their horses
Score
3-0 /4-2 /5-3/ 8-3 /8-4/ 11-6/ 14-8
La Dolfina presented again as a real Dream team, with a better understanding of the new rules and in a great day when everyting was going right, won without having any problem
Ellerstina with some home work to do as also hasnt the day facundo in a forgetable day too *lost three penalties *2 40 y and 1 60y buy totally out of focus today as his other team mates.
In order to explain what happen could be found in a different objective in the process to the Argentine Open , must improve it for certain, they posses the tools to regain its best shape.
Facundo Pieres shows a minor injury in his arm after the match.
Cambiaso MVP of the Tortugas Final, won also the best horses of the match, one the best of the final and the best Argentine polo horse, as also the top scorer... what else he can achive this year!
Ellerstina also must improve in the faults issue 14 are so much! against La Dolfina *only 8, cpuld be cause by a luck of consistecy shown after the 5th chukker (with some wrong decision from the judges that again arent at the same levl as the players need) and evident frustration in thefield when nothing was working against La Dolfina precise order of their players, with an ideal atack and defense transitions of all players.
Ellerstina could play better that today!
La Dolfina is in the right paterns to mantain there triple crown.
