Jet Run Squad Gallops Away
Wellington, Fla. – January 30, 2026—Team riders for self-named Jet Run—a combination of North Run and JET Show Stable competitors—were the ones to beat on Friday evening of Week 4 at the Winter Equestrian Festival (WEF) in the $25,000 BrainJuice U25 Grand Prix Series Team Event. Campbell Brown, 18, of Fayetteville, AR; Alexander Alston, 22, of New Albany, OH; Eva Fisherman, 22, of Brookline, MA; and Jole Kosloske, 18, of Keystone, CO, were led by chef d’équipe John Brennan and put in a stellar performance across two rounds for the top of the podium.

Set in the International Stadium at Equestrian Village, 12 teams of four up-and-coming international riders went head-to-head, gaining valuable experience in a team structure that mirrors a Nations Cup. Six teams returned for a second round to decide the final standings.
The only team to sit on a score of zero after the first round, Jet Run’s fate was sealed when Brown, winner of the BrainJuice U25 Grand Prix during WEF 2, brought home a double-clear day riding MMK Equestrian’s Colina Z. The team’s youngest members proved to be the anchors, and Kosloske also posted a fault-free performance aboard Crystal Claire. Alexander Alston kept his score to four in each round riding Spider for owner Alston Alliance, and Eva Fiserman posted a clear and an eight-fault round in the irons of Casallvano.

“This is great practice for senior team environments,” said Fisherman, who is entering her third season of U25 competition at WEF. “Learning how to handle that added pressure will help us in the long run, and it’s fun to get to do it with good people.”

Coming off a win and currently sitting at the top of the BrainJuice Under 25 Grand Prix Series season standings, Brown noted, “I came into this class hoping to stay consistent, and I love the team class. It’s great to do it with a group of friends. Walking in the ring for that second round, there was pressure, but it was manageable, and I keep trying to show up to each class focused on doing my best.”

Alston came into Friday with the most U25 Team experience after three years of competing in the BrainJuice Under 25 Grand Prix Series. “This has always been my favorite class—the pressure is exciting,” he said. “Campbell, Eve and I have been winners of this class before, so it’s nice that we’re on the same team again and could pull it off a second time.”

“I’ve never had partners like this, so I was nervous,” said Kosloske of her first appearance in the U25 Team Event and first year competing in the Under 25 Series. “I just started at 1.40m with my horse six months ago, so we’re new to this. She tries so hard for me. Tonight, I made a couple of mistakes, and she backed me up.”
Finishing on nine faults, Mary Rose Canterbury, Cristian Hacker, Layla Kurbanov and Eilzabeth Grace Thomassin were second under the team moniker Heated Ridealry. Winners from 2025, Fore Real took third on a 12-fault score. This year, the team consisted of Ansgar Holtgers, Jr., Cassidy Rein, Ty Simpson, and Tony Stormanns.
