With superstar Pablo MacDonough, MVP of the final, and Martin Gandara and Facundo Fernandez Llorete, patron Amr Zedan put together a very competitive team to defeat a tough opponent like Bin Drai in the decisive match of the Dubai Polo Gold Cup Series 2015.

In a very tight final, the talent of MacDonough was the big difference between the two teams. Pablo, two times triple crown champion with La Dolfina, decided the game in favour of Zedan in the last minute of the game with two late goals.

His mare, Irenita Pimienta from the Argentinian Polo Breeders Association, was the best playing pony while Veronica from Bin Drai Polo Team with Manolo Fernandez Llorente in the saddle, was also awarded by the Dubai Polo & Equestrian Club.

Meanwhile, Abu Dhabi won the Bentley Cup after defeating Mahra Polo 7-5 in another tough final on a very busy day at the Dubai Polo & Equestrian Club. Abu Dhabi patron Faris Al Yabhouni was named the best amateur of the final.
