Diary of a
Hedge Hopper
Screams of fear, girly giggles, naughty dance moves,
and a horse called Peanut who's always trying to yeet me over hedges.

As Seen On

Against All Odds

Everyone told me to put him down.
When Peanut first came into my life, he was written off — vets, trainers, everyone said the same thing. But I saw something in him that nobody else did. One last roll of the dice, one more chance, and it changed everything. Today, Peanut is the sassiest, bravest hedge-hopping partner I could ask for — and together we've built a community of over 31,600 people who believe in second chances.
Peanut & me
I had one more thing to try.
Best decision I ever made.
— Sophie, on how it all started
The
underdog story
From "put him down" to hedge-hopping hero
Peanut was bred for showjumping greatness — but he bucked, reared, spun, and launched every rider who tried. A professional eventer ended up with broken ribs and teeth. He was out of chances. Then I had an idea: take him hunting. It changed everything. Now we're an unstoppable team flying over hedges — and we're just getting started.

Hold on tight, say a little prayer, and hope Peanut doesn't launch you into next week!
Peanut's motto:
Whether you clear the hedge is your problem. Launching you off? That's my job.

The moment that mattered
No one clapped louder than us that day — 4th place,and it felt like we'd won the whole thing.
Because no one knew how far we'd come to get there.

our number one
