Unbridled with Hayley Waters

By Lisa Engel

Twenty-one-year-old Hayley Waters of Sparr, Florida, is on her way to being listed in the who’s-who of equestrians. Daughter of a well-known horse family, amateur rider Dana Waters and professional Chuck Waters, of Waterworks Farm in Sparr, and under Daniel Damen’s tutelage, Hayley has become a regular in the winner’s circles at the most prestigious show jumping events in the country. She won her first grand prix when she was 16 and has since won 12 more on at least seven different horses. Hayley was also on the Zone 4 gold medal team in 2014. Her winning streak has continued in 2017, winning two grand prix in Ocala, Florida, and two in Tryon, North Carolina. Sidelines caught up with Hayley ringside at the Devon Horse Show, where she continued to jump into the winner’s circle.

How did you get started with riding?

Both of my parents are in the horse business, and I started doing lead line at a young age.

Which person inspired you the most in riding?

My parents have definitely inspired me the most to ride.

What three things are the most important to you?

My family, my horses and my dogs

What are the three most important traits that you look for in a horse?

They need to be brave, scopey and have a big heart.

How do you relax? 

I do aerial yoga, Pilates and barre. I’ve been doing that maybe six months and when I’m home in Sparr, I do it almost every day.

The most important traits in a person are:

Honesty and loyalty

My strongest quality:

I think I am trustworthy.

Vacation anywhere:

Fiji sounds nice.

What’s the best feeling you’ve ever had? 

I was really happy after winning the $250,000 Junior/Amateur Owner Jumper Classic in Saugerties. That was maybe the best feeling.

What career path would you have chosen if horses were not an option?

Well, I just started taking accounting classes, so I would probably be in school right now.

What’s your favorite piece of clothing?

I love clothes, but my sister gave me a pair of Tieks ballet flats for my birthday and I really like those.

If you could tell every hunter or jumper rider one thing, what would it be?

“No scope, no hope.” I think that would be it.

Who would you talk to if you could talk to anyone?

My horse Quirnt.

Do you have a favorite TV show to binge-watch?

I binge-watch “The Office.” I think I’ve watched it three times through and it just gets funnier! I’m pretty addicted to “Scandal” as well.

What’s your go-to social media site to use?

I’m not super active on social media. I probably like Instagram the best though.

What are your plans for fall?

So far I know I’m going to Saugerties and the National Horse Show.

What’s your favorite dessert?

Macaroons

Have you done any extreme sports (other than horses!)?

I don’t think zip lining counts, but I went a couple of weeks ago. A bunch of the trees we were supported by were in bad shape so I was pretty freaked out.

In the unique and challenging sport of combined dr In the unique and challenging sport of combined driving, Jacob Arnold has proven himself to be a bona fide star. It’s been said that success develops from a recipe based on hard work, perseverance, learning and sacrifice, paired with a love of what one is doing. Since the time he was a boy, Jacob has had the right combination of all of those ingredients, which have culminated in a meteoric rise to stardom.

Beginning his career as a Junior, Jacob earned the coveted @usequestrian Junior Equestrian of the Year award in 2011. Since then, he has taken the combined driving world by storm, competing successfully in four @fei_global World Championships. He also won the USEF Advanced Pair Horse National Championship in 2020 and 2021, among other victories—all before the age of 28, in a sport that has historically been dominated by older drivers. Last September, he placed 12th—the highest of any American driver—at the 2021 FEI Driving World Championship for Pairs in a field of over 100 top-level drivers.
