There was a great list of international talent qualified for the TransCanada U25 Winning Round on day four of the Spruce Meadows 'National' CSI5* presented by Rolex. It was just a coincidence but 25 horse/rider combinations would step froward into the International Ring for this exciting U25 competition. As a winning round competition, these riders, while obviously wanting to be clear, only needed to finish in the top 10 of the first round to come back for the Winning Round. Five riders would post a clear round in round one while the remaining top 10 finishers would post time faults, but no rails, moving to the Winning Round. Ben Asselin (CAN), Carlos Hank Guerreiro (MEX) and Juan Jose Zendejas representing Mexico all carried two horses into the Winning Round. It would come down to Guerreiro and Zendejas for top spot and Zendejas left nothing behind. "I had to give it a try" stated Zendejas about his winning ride. "It's an honour to win here" - Juan Jose Zendejas (MEX)
