Participating Teams 

ZONE-A 

Match 1: Travieso vs Casablanca 

Date: 6 April 

The first and also the highest-scoring game of the Triple Crown Polo was held between Travieso and Casablanca. The Grand Champions Polo field witnessed a decent start from both these teams, but Travieso took over and had a three-point lead by the end of the third round. Hereafter, they were able to maintain the lead, and despite the valiant efforts in the last round, Casablanca couldn’t cope and lost their first game to Travieso. 

Winner: Travieso ( 15-12 )

Match 2: Tonkawa vs Maltese Falcons 

Date: 7 April

The second game was a closer fight between the Tonkawa and the Maltese Falcons. The Maltese Falcons scored four goals in the first chukker, putting Tonkawa under pressure from the start. Tonkawa was able to pull itself back into the game and level the scores in the fourth round. Both teams had the concluding round to race for the finish line, and Tonkawa was able to make it across the finish line, scoring three goals in the final round. 

Winner: Tonkawa ( 12-10 )

Match 3: Maltese Falcons vs Travieso 

Date: 10 April 

It was time for the Maltese Falcons and Travieso to face each other in the third game of the tournament.

The Maltese Falcons used their lead to slowly strip away the game from their opposition.

Winner: Maltese Falcons ( 11-8 )

Match 4: Casablanca vs Maltese Falcons 

Date: 14 April 

The next game was held after a three-day break, and the fresh legs representing Casablanca and Maltese Falcons stood up to face one another. Despite scoring half a dozen goals at the start of the game, the Maltese Falcons couldn’t keep up with the pace and conceded too many goals in the latter half, which caused them to lose the last game of the Triple Crown of Polo.

Winner: Casablanca ( 13-10 )
