Argentina Polo Tour resumes after heavy rainfalls in Buenos Aires

After Saturday’s postponements, victory for Cabreuva and La Natividad on Sunday

Argentina Polo Tour QBE 2013, Palermo

The prevailing weather conditions in most of Argentina and especially in the area of Polo’s Cathedral at Palermo this Saturday (March 2nd), day three of the 2013 Argentina Polo Tour QBE, led to the day’s action being postponed.

Thanks to the fields’ rapid draining, the action returned on Sunday (March 3rd). Cabreuva defeated Ellerstina (with Tomás Pieres and Clemente Zavaleta as part of this team) 12-10, prior to La Natividad (with Bartolomé Castagnola in the team’s line-up) defeating Lovelocks 12-8. Both these matches formed part of the zone B schedule.

The postponed matches of zone A which had been scheduled for Saturday (day three) will be played this Monday (March 4th), when Tom Tailor will be facing Hope Funds and Los Cocos will be playing against Chapelco.
