The final evening of the inaugural Royal West came to a close with Elizabeth Gingras and Zilversprings winning the first annual $100,000 Spirit of the West CSI3* Cup presented by Big Interactive and C&V Portable Accommodations.

Fresh off of their Thursday evening win in the Miller Thompson FEI Classic, Zilversprings and Gingras put in a confident fast double clear ride over the technical and fast paced track set by course designer Werner Deeg.

The field of twenty-seven horses squared off with only six jumping clear and making it into a fast paced jump off. The daunting track caught many of the riders at the beginning of the class as fifteen horses jumped the first round before a clear round ridden by Tamie Philips and Cat Balou.
