Jessica Springsteen has established herself as a promising equestrian with her persistence in reaching new heights. From the LGCT show series to the stages of the Olympics, Jessica has hopped nations presenting her excellence and quenching her childhood interest. This time around, as the Paris 2024 nears the brink and uncertainties linger, the 32-year-old has kept up with her practice.

The US show-jumping team may have secured a qualification for the Paris Olympics but the roster remains unknown. Jessica Springsteen, who made the Tokyo 2020 team, has her fingers crossed among hundreds who await the announcement. However, in the meantime, the Olympic silver medalist has got on to doing what she does best; taking off at a horse show but this time, in a new avatar.

Jessica Springsteen assumes a new role

Olympic equestrian, Dani G. Waldman, recently took to her Instagram stories to introduce a guest in a commentator’s seat. “Partner in crime today,” she captioned her story tagging Jessica Springsteen. Adorning a bright smile, wearing an announcer’s equipment, and dressed as an equestrian, Jessica posed for the camera. Dani G. Waldman, who represented Israel in the 2020 Tokyo Olympics is also known for being a sports commentator and host of Horse Bytes, providing every detail on show-jumping.

So if Jessica were to start a new role, Waldman would prove to be the right mentor. But luckily for the equestrian’s fans, Springsteen was in Wellington to do more than commentate. Over the WEF 2 and 3, the Olympian contested multiple times, securing results satisfactory for the hopeful journey ahead.

Winter Equestrian Festival shines well for the equestrian

Jessica Springsteen started her WEF 2024 journey in 2nd week and started with a double clear atop Tiny Dancer in 1.40. For the next round of the week, the duo took on 1.45 but landed 8 faults to 68.432 seconds missing the jump-off. Jessica further regained momentum going into WEF, as her next equine, Cayman de Poteau Z helped put up a double clear in 1.45 class. With the clock timed at 47.468, the duo clinched an 8th position on the table. As for today, the Olympian, along with RMF Clinton moved a step ahead to tackle 1.50.
