Dear Marion, the Open went like a dream, Ines provided excellent ponies and took great care of us. Life at Trafalgar was lovely and James enjoyed and benefited immensely from coaching by Fidel and by Nico, both in the yard and on the field. For Cristina and I it was fun to be one reacquainted with anduluce again and delightful Spainish ways. Now we have found a way to play in the off season, for UK, we will be back. With very best regards, Philip

Philip Garvin, Scotland

Hi Marion,
Same here! Duarte had a wonderful time and improved his riding/polo ( and self confidence ) in just one week. Thank you to all the very kind Trafalgar team for looking after Duarte with so much love and affection. The setting is absolute paradise. Lovely meeting so many devoted polo parents! Sarah, Cristina, Philip, you all have my admiration. Hope to see you again soon.
Un abrazo enorme Marion, para ti y toda la familia de Trafalgar!
Marta, Dani y Duarte
