JJ Torano — a season to remember. 🇺🇸
What a week at the Hampton Classic for JJ Torano. 🏆
The young American rider put together an incredible week, finishing second in the $40,000 National Grand Prix with I Am Inge, before claiming two wins with Vitus K in the $10,000 Junior/Amateur Welcome Stake and the $30,000 Junior/Amateur Jumper Classic.
And Hampton is just the latest highlight of an outstanding 2026 season.
It started with a win in the $50,000 BrainJuice U25 Grand Prix Final in Wellington with Lyon 50. At Devon, JJ continued his winning streak, claiming three Junior Jumper victories and the Junior Jumper Championship.
He then stepped onto the international stage at the FEI North American Youth Championships, where he and I Am Inge were named Reserve Champions in the Young Rider Individual Final, while also earning a team silver medal with Zone 4.
JJ went on to claim a CSI4* victory at Upperville with Dora du Valon, before winning the Young Riders’ STAWAG-Prize at Aachen with Lyon 50.
From the daily work at home to the biggest stages in the sport, CWD is proud to be by JJ’s side every step of the way — supporting him in the barn, in the ring, and all the way to his biggest wins.
And there’s still more to come. ✨
