Polo ponies are horses, not ponies: most stand around 15 hands. What matters is acceleration, a quick stop and a turn on a dime.
We breed on the estancia in Palermo, start the youngsters at four, and play them in the low goal at six. The best are in the Gold Cup by eight.
Every horse rests two days for each chukka played. In winter they go back to the estancia to run free for three months.
