The funny feeling that had crept up on me on the train back to London after the match had lingered. Everything had gone to plan, and we had achieved something monumental: eight 10-goal players had come together to play at Lawns. It was a fantastic match, and the 10-goalers were able to show the virtues and dynamism implicit in the style of polo we were promoting. But I was a little uneasy. I felt strange, detached—almost depressed. It was only after that night of insomnia that I realised why: the 40-goal exhibition at Cowdray clearly marked the end of a cycle for the All Pro Polo League.
