The Duke Of
Cambridge and Prince Harry Head-To-Head
at Sentebale Polo Cup Sponsored by Royal
Salute.
The Duke of Cambridge and Prince Harry
demonstrated polo at its finest
yesterday with the Duke’s team coming
out on top, in front of a star-studded
crowd at The Sentebale Polo Cup
sponsored by Royal Salute.
Neve Campbell, Dougray Scott, Claire
Forlani, Ellie Goulding and Greg James,
were hosted by the luxury Scotch whisky
Royal Salute, as they overlooked a
spectacular game of polo at Coworth Park
just outside London. The exclusive
invite-only event raised funds for
Sentebale, a charity co-founded by
Prince Harry and Prince Seeiso of
Lesotho, who also attended the event.
Prince Harry said: "I’m delighted to be
at the second Sentebale Polo Cup in the
glorious setting of Coworth Park. While
my team didn’t finish as champions, it’s
encouraging to see the level of support
here today for this great cause that
gives hope and help to the children of
Lesotho."
Christian Porta, Chairman and CEO,
Chivas Brothers says, "Royal Salute is
honoured to be associated with polo and
more importantly today, with Sentebale,
a very special charity that is helping
and changing the lives of many in
Lesotho. It’s been such a privilege to
watch this incredibly historic and
skilful game in the beautiful
surroundings of Coworth Park."
The exclusive Royal Salute Dinner and
After Party, attended by The Prince, the
Duke of Argyll, models Karolina Kurkova
and Tallulah Harlech, model and actor
Douglas Booth, and actors Toby Kebbell
and Sally Hawkins, further treated VIPs
to a special viewing of Tribute to
Honour, Royal Salute’s finest and rarest
limited edition expression of only 21
bottles. Adorned with over 400 black and
white diamonds, Tribute to Honour is a
collaboration with Garrard, the royal
jeweller and fellow supporter of
Sentebale.
The Sentebale event, sponsored by Royal
Salute included an auction to raise
vital funds for the charity, set up five
years ago by Prince Harry and Prince
Seeiso, in support of the neediest and
most vulnerable people of Lesotho.
The Sentebale Polo Cup sponsored by
Royal Salute further highlights the
whisky brand’s growing commitment to
international polo, with sponsorships of
some of the world’s most prestigious
polo events currently spanning China,
India, Dubai, Brazil and the UK.
Royal Salute World Polo Series continues
on the 18th June 2011 at a charity event
held at the Beaufort Polo Club in
Tetbury, Gloucestershire and closely
followed by The Foundation Polo
Challenge, at Santa Barbara, California,
to raise funds for the American Friends
of the Foundation of Prince William and
Prince Harry on 9th July 2011.
