Mr. Tony Lott, of the Lexington Polo Club is quoted as saying: 

"We have had many complements on the program this year - the cover specifically.   Players can be very particular about polo art because there always seems to be something not quite right about the tack, the pony, the player, etc.   "Obsession" is almost a polo lesson in and of itself.  The players are in position, the subject player is beginning a swing with perfect form - hard to do and hard even to photograph - can't imagine getting it right in oil.  He's also balanced and is not "in the pony's mouth" with the bit.  Such a great piece, and we're fortunate to have it as the cover this year."

This epic painting features the Federation of International Polo (FIP) Association's 1998 World Championship semi-final polo match, held in Santa Barbara, CA, between England and Brazil.  England beat Spain with a decisive 10-6 score in the final matches of the 1997 qualifying trials in order to compete in this world class event.  Brazil,  the defending world champions, had upset Argentina in the 1997 St. Moritz trials, then took 2nd to Argentina in the 1998 World Championship match.    (See also   "World Champions" )
