Hailing from a family of equestrians, Hunter Holloway has been around horses her whole life, and she’s been competing at the Hunter top of the sport since a young age. At just 12 years old, she became the youngest ever to win a national grand prix. In 2016, she won the ASPCA Maclay National Championship, the Washington International Equitation Finals and the U25 Jumper Championship at the Pennsylvania National Horse Show.
Holloway’s success has continued into her professional career with highlight wins including the 2018 AON Cup CSI5*
Spruce Meadows in Calgary, Canada, the 2022 $405,300 HITS Grand Prix CSI5* at HITS Saugerties in New York, and numerous national and international grand prix wins. She has also represented the United States on Nations Cup teams in Canada and Germany.
One of her most recent accomplishments was her third-place finish aboard Pepita Con Spita at the 2023 Longines FEI Jumping World Cup™ Final in Omaha, Nebraska. This podium placing was especially meaningful to Holloway because of her Midwest roots. Born and raised in Topeka, Kansas, she considers the CHI Health Center Omaha, where the final was held, a hometown venue.
