In the summer of 1930 four adventurous country boys embarked on an ambitious quest to represent Australian polo in England. On a shoestring budget these four horsemen took on the cream of British polo.
The Ashton brothers' outstanding success is one of Australia's great underdog stories, a story about Aussie grit, determination, brilliant horsemanship and victory against all expectations. What happened in England and then America in 1930 led to Jim Ashton purchasing Millamolong Station and to this day the Ashton family continue their tradition of polo, horse breeding, farming and viticulture/wine making at Millamolong. For the past thirty years Millamolong has welcomed guests from around the globe who come and enjoy the station and all that is on offer.
Millamolong Polo Club is owned and run by one James Ashton. With its own full-sized polo field and clubhouse, Millamolong hosts many national and international tournaments throughout the summer months. These include the Jamie Ashton Memorial Cup (May) and the Will Ashton Memorial Tournament (December).
