Eventing

Hawley Bennett-Awad

Growing up in Aldergrove, British Columbia, Hawley Bennet-Awad found her love for horses as a member of the Otter 4-H Horse Club where she learned to keep a recordbook and speak confidently in public – something she says helped her stay composed in the dressage ring. Although her first obsession was gymnastics, competing as a team in the Langley Pony Club is where she got hooked to eventing. At 15 years old, she started working at MacDonald’s and galloping racehorses to pay for things like riding lessons. She says, “I guess not having everything just given to me made me want it more and work harder.” Hawley is known for the extreme compassion and care that she gives to her horses. “I only had one horse for a long time. If he got hurt, that was it,” she explains. “I learned to really take care of him. Grooming him myself everyday was important. I wanted to know what his body felt like.” Hawley’s current super-star mare, Jollybo is a 2004 Irish Sport Horse sired by the great Jumbo. “Riding Jolly is a dream,” Hawley says. “She is one of the most honest and brave horses I have ever ridden on cross country. Although she is tiny, she has a massive stride and can cover the ground. I know that she may not be the fanciest on the flat, but she is one of the most consistent, workman-like horses ever. It’s nice when the judges reward that!”

The Horse

“The first thing I look at is the eye, honestly. To me, the mind is one of the most important things. You can have a talented horse, but if they don’t have the mind to do it, it’s hit or miss. I’d rather have less talent with a big heart and good mind. It’s so hard to get a horse four-star fit and keep them contained in the dressage ring, still be able to go cross country, and be rideable and come back into show jumping. The mind is really really important; I like to see them brave but smart and calm at the same time.”
