When you’re ready to get your confidence back in the jumper ring, you know who to call.

I’ve ridden horses from 3* eventing to the 1.30m jumpers, and I still have that little voice in my head that occasionally suggests maybe today is the day I take up golf.

I’ve gotten pretty good at telling that voice to shush.

Confidence over fences isn’t always about jumping bigger or riding harder. Sometimes it’s about getting back to the basics, building trust with your horse, and having someone on the ground who can help you work through the moments that make you nervous.

Horse riding is hard enough without your own brain trying to make it harder. If you’re struggling with your confidence, reach out. We can work on it together.

There is something pretty special about a good mare.

Adrienne has really lucked out with her two. Olympia spends half the year as my 1.20–1.30m horse, and the other half of the year showing Adrienne the ropes around 1.00–1.15m. Her other mare, Ally, fills in the gaps and has recently added another job to her resume: lesson pony for Adrienne’s son, Adam.

Not every performance horse can move up and down the levels with different riders and still be happy about whatever job you give them. These two mares are both incredibly talented, but what I appreciate most is how willing they are to meet their riders where they are and answer whatever question gets put in front of them.

One day that might mean jumping a big track with me. The next, it might mean helping Adrienne gain confidence or teaching a little one the joys of posting trot.

Those are the horses I love having in the program. Talented horses are great, but horses who are willing, kind, and happy to do their job with whoever is sitting in the saddle are something pretty special.

I’m very lucky to get to ride them—and even luckier to watch what they do for their people.

Well, this was not quite how I had imagined the Piedmont Jumper Classic was going to go.

I had a fall in the Grand Prix ring while I am thankfully okay, I was unconscious for over a minute and ended up with a concussion. Concussions are no joke, and this one has definitely reminded me that sometimes the most important part of the plan is knowing when you need to care of your body.

Thankfully, I have an incredible group of people around me who stepped in and made sure everything kept moving.

Silvio finished the weekend riding for me, and Elaudio stepped up and groomed all week. The show staff and medical team were wonderful in their response to my fall, and I’m incredibly grateful for how everyone handled things.

Most importantly, our owners were incredibly understanding and supportive, and were happy to see their horses continue competing for the rest of the week. Nobody panicked, everyone pitched in, and the horses who I have put so much work into at home, still got to show off and jump around with Silvio on board.

It’s one of those moments that really reminds you that it takes a village. Things don’t always go according to plan, and sometimes you take a little nap in the Grand Prix ring, but having good people around you makes all the difference.

I’m very grateful for the people who stepped in, took care of the horses, and kept everything moving while I took a step back. I’m so, so, so lucky to have this team.

From the .80m to the 1.15m, I have one very important question:

Who jumped it best?

Theresa’s Blu, Sara’s Lil’Blip, Theresa’s Poppy, or Brittni’s Flynn?

Different horses, different heights, different stages of their careers, and all four giving me a ride to be proud of.

I’ll let you decide.

Two horses, same line of jumps, same height—and two very different rides to get there.

One of my favorite parts of this job is producing horses from the bottom of the levels and watching them figure out the bigger questions along the way. Lil’Blip makes me especially proud. I may have a bit of a soft spot for my draft-cross homebred, but I think he’s earned it!

Whether a horse is just getting started or ready to move up, I really enjoy helping owners develop a partnership they can enjoy for years to come.

I still have some space in the program for horses in training. If you’re looking for a supportive, encouraging environment to develop your horse and move up the levels together, reach out to learn more.

We had a great day at Beverly Equestrian’s Schooling Jumper Show, with a little bit of everything for the Solosi crew.

My rides put in some great work! Theresa Foote's Blu put in two clear rounds in the .80m and continues to impress us with her willing attitude and confidence in the ring. Theresa Foote's Poppy jumped around the 1.10m with ease; she is taking to her new career in show jumping like a fish in water! Solosi homebred Lil’Blip, owned by Sara Calvery, put in some solid .80m rounds and is getting more confident with every outing. Flynn, owned by Brittni Skrypec, jumped a clear 1.15m, and we are feeling ready to step back up to the 1.20m at The Piedmont Classic later this week. And my own Malone proved that the 1m is beneath her and is ready for a bigger jump!

Pete and Barn Manager Madison Cowen stepped up to their first 1m round, and are prepping for their first Training Level event, while Adrianne and her mare Allie are building a really nice partnership. Their work at home is starting to show in the ring, and it’s been rewarding to watch their confidence continue to grow.

A good day of making progress, and learning. That’s what we like to see!

Thank you to Beverly Equestrian for hosting such a great schooling show and giving us a great place to get some miles in. And a huge shoutout to our head groom, Elaudio, for making sure that we showed up to the arena on time and looking our best. We couldn’t do days like this without you!

August has meant a lot of bathing around here, and for some of our more sensitive-skinned horses, that can come with its own set of problems.

We were seeing irritation and hair loss in a few of the horses that just don’t tolerate harsher shampoos particularly well. Since switching to Coat Defense Sensitive Skin Shampoo, we haven’t had the same issues, even with the extra baths that come with hot, sweaty summer days.

Happy skin, happy horses... and, perhaps most importantly, our dark bays are still looking appropriately dark bay.
