first love, but the world of polo has
certainly challenged her allegiances.

What a great summer of polo we have had in England on and off the field. The
most exciting part was watching the Castagnola brothers play. Have a look
at Ones to Watch in Talk, and in Action – they feature in the Gold Cup, the
Coronation Cup and in Sotogrande.
As Nick Wiles prepares to take over the chairmanship of the HPA later in
the autumn, he lays out an agenda and what he hopes to achieve in the next five
years in Opinion.
In Features, we look at the HPA 1875 clothing range. If you happened to be
on London’s Oxford Street or on the Tube in July, you may have seen advertisements
for the brand.
Elsewhere, polo player the Earl of Tyrone describes how he is starting a whiskey
tradition and prolonging his family’s illustrious legacy at Curraghmore House
in Waterford, Ireland.
As a teenager in the 1970s, I used to play on Washington’s National Mall.
In Archive, we look back on how it all started and look forward to celebrating
100 years of polo there in 2020.
Hurlingham is sent to 10,000 players around the world free of charge. We rely
on advertising to pay for the magazine. I would like to ask you all to have a look at
the advertisers and if you need any of their services or products, reach out to them.
