Congratulations to Sofia Cady of Austin, TX, and Twist Studio LLC’s Deleyn, Show Jumping Hall of Fame Rider and Horse of the Month for January.
Cady competes in the Junior Division of the Show Jumping Hall of Fame Jumper Classic Series East Conference presented by Rood & Riddle.
The pair started their year with a strong showing at the Winter Equestrian Festival (WEF) at Wellington International, riding to two podium finishes in the $10,000 Show Jumping Hall of Fame Junior Jumper Classics, earning 2nd during WEF 1 and clinching the win during WEF 3.
These successes helped Cady secure the January Rider of the Month award sponsored by Charles Ancona.
Deleyn, a 12-year-old Holsteiner mare, was awarded Horse of the Month sponsored by Lisa Seger Insurance.

The East Conference is presented by Rood & Riddle Equine Hospital, and the West Conference is presented by LAURACEA. Year-end Championships are held at the National Horse Show in Lexington, KY and the Blenheim EquiSports International Jumping Festival in San Juan Capistrano, CA.
