Please do not tell me that Harry's polo team flew their own horses over.............
you could build a hospital for that in Lesotho.

I believe I read somewhere that he was borrowing horses. I seriously doubt you would even be able to import horses for such a short 36 hr period with the quarantines they would have to go through- for a 36 hr trip and a single game it isn't worth it.

There are TONS of polo ponies in NY. I'm not surprised that they did the polo match on Governor's Island since he had such as short time to be here and needed to be back however there's also polo every Sunday during the summer at Bethpage State Park on Long Island as well several other polo clubs in Suffolk County.

Flying horses in, imo, would just be ridiculous given the amt. of time he had to be here and given his reputation as a player and the fact that he is royalty I'm sure there were a ton of people who were willing to loan him ponies to use.

It is normally only a two to three day quarantine period and very easy to arrange.

The photo with Madisen Iken is cute. The girl is totally overwhelmed. Prince Henry does a good job interacting with children. He looks really nice playing polo, the sport of kings.
