Tue 19th Jul 2016High Goal Handicaps Juan Martin Nero Goes to Ten
The handicap changes agreed at the No 1 Meeting (22 goal) held on Monday 18 July 2016 are listed below. There have only been six players raised in handicap including Hugo Lewis who was the only English player, he not only reached the Final of The Jaeger-LeCoultre Gold Cup, but won it with the King Power Foxes team. Having been raised from 2 to 3 goals, it will leave him out of the team for next year's British 22 goal if King power Foxes were to play the same line-up as Gonzalito, Facundo and Tal have all remained on the same handicaps. The most obvious change in the list is the return of Juan Martin Nero’s 10 goal status. Nero’s handicap dropped at the end of the 2015 British season after Zacara failed to win any of the top titles. His lower handicap meant he was snapped up by Dubai for the 2016 season who went on to win The Cartier Queen’s Cup. La Indiana’s number four player Julian de Lusarreta, Most Valuable Player in The Cartier Queen’s Cup has also been raised from 6 to 7 goals after a solid season of excellent play in all the outings for La Indiana. English players James Beim and Luke Tomlinson have both been lowered from 7 to 6 goals whilst a quartet of overseas players have been lowered from 9 to 8 goals. Youngsters Jose Araya and Kian Hall have also not escaped the handicap committee’s keen eye as they have both gone up however Ollie Cork, and Charles Cooney have been carried forward to the next meeting in August before their high goal futures will be decided.
