On the night when Royal West held its Gala To Find A Cure benefiting breast cancer research, night three of the 2016 edition produced another show stopper for the 2016 Royal West featuring the prestigious $132,000 Longines FEI World Cup™ Jumping Calgary presented by pandaHAUS on Oct. 29.

The feature event of the evening was the $35,000 1.45m Royal West Championship and the 1.45m Overall championship— sponsored by Tractorland of Airdrie, Calgary and High River. It was a cumulative event with points accumulated from the previous two nights counting to the final.

Werner Deeg designed the longest course so far this week to test the riders. Phase Three saw an exciting jump off featuring 11 horses. Samuel Parot, winner of Phase 1 on Thursday, scorched the course in 40:95 aboard Couscous van Ortli to win the competition.
