Riding over a course of natural obstacles designed by J.P. Godard of Aiken, SC, Hayes and Say When, owned by Danielle Trudell-Baran, earned a score of 90. Judges Brian Lenehan of Palm Beach Gardens, FL, and Steve Wall of Pinehurst, NC, also awarded ten bonus points to Hayes for utilizing all five of the high options as well as eight handy bonus points, giving her the win with an overall score of 108.
“It’s always great to win at The Royal,” said Hayes. “Everybody’s here and it’s the crème de la crème of Canada. It’s always nice to put ribbons on the banner here at The Royal. Everybody’s goal is to get here all year long, and to be successful when we get here.”
Junior competitor Sam Walker, 14, of Nobleton, ON, riding Heavenly, owned by Marion Cunningham, placed second with an overall score of 100, while Hayes also took third with a final score of 99 points riding Crush for owner Cawthra Burns.

Hayes has been riding Say When for four years, with 2016 marking her third win at The Royal with the eight-year-old Dutch Warmblood gelding.

“He’s an amazing horse,” said Hayes, who guided Say When to a second place finish in the $50,000 International Hunter Derby at the 2015 Winter Equestrian Festival in Wellington, FL. “He’s probably the nicest horse I’ve ever ridden. This is the only class he’s done here, and he walks right in the ring like it’s nothing. He shows up to work, and he always does his best.”
Hunter Derby competition continues Tuesday, November 8, at 7 p.m. with the $25,000 Knightwood Hunter Derby. Following Tuesday’s night’s competition, the winner will be presented with the Lorna Jean Guthrie Challenge Trophy for the Canadian Hunter Derby Champion.
