Becky McCabe guides her horse through a brutal course at twenty-one. She attacks each jump with precision. The rollback demands a risky inside turn. She takes it without hesitation.

Her mother waits in the wings as the next competitor. Both women have championship blood. Both deserve Olympic selection. The sport allows only one rider per event. Mother and daughter must choose between family loyalty and lifelong dreams. The arena becomes their battlefield. Each jump separates winner from heartbreak.
