Jesse Bray brings a 7-goal handicap to La Dolfina/Scone, where he plays alongside Rufino Merlos at 6 and patrons Bruce Gottwald, David Paradice, and Max Torokvei. As the team’s highest-rated player, Bray is the offensive engine for a squad that carries the La Dolfina name — the most storied organization in modern polo.
Playing under the La Dolfina banner at the U.S. Open means representing the legacy of Adolfo Cambiaso. Bray and Merlos form a 7-and-6 professional partnership that gives La Dolfina/Scone legitimate scoring power, even without a 10-goal star.
At 7 goals, Bray occupies the tier where a player is expected to influence every chukker — not just score, but create opportunities for teammates and control the tempo of play.
