Under the patronage of HH Sheikh Falah bin Zayed Al Nahyan, Ghantoot Racing & Polo Club in Abu Dhabi rolled out the pink carpet in aid of Breast Cancer Awareness. The event was supported by Emirates Woman, and as both the ADCB and Estée Lauder polo teams saddled up, EW was fieldside searching for the best-dressed nominees. After being entertained by skydivers, falconers and musicians, guests were treated to a delicious helping of high tea while the game got underway. One of the day’s highlights saw hordes of pinkclad guests take to the field to fix the grass divots during the break from each of the chukkas. The ADCB team was victorious on this occasion, beating their opponents 5-3. As for the best dressed woman, judged by Nour Sabbah, Lisa Sterannesten and EW’s Elizabeth Whiston-Dew, Natalie Mason took the top spot while El Reem Mohammed and Charlotte Rydstrom took second and third place respectively. n
