I don't think Hastings is a good example of cavalry defeating infantry.

Although some of the English infantry were defeated when they counterattacked downhill, and were counterattacked in turn, the main English line held almost until nightfall and only collapsed because the Norman archers killed king Harold. Archery was decisive, and it doesn't really fit into the infantry-vs-cavalry debate.
