Baby, she was born to ride.<\/p>\n

Jessica Springsteen, the 29-year-old daughter and middle child of New Jersey\u2019s own Bruce \u201cThe Boss\u201d Springsteen, will join Team USA at the Olympics later this month.<\/p>\n

Today, US Equestrian, the national governing body of the sport in the United States, announced<\/a> that Springsteen, along with Kent Farrington, Laura Kraut and McLain Ward, will make up the finalized US jumping roster for the Tokyo game<\/a>s.<\/p>\n

Riding atop her 12-year-old stallion Don Juan Van de Donkhoeve, Springsteen now has the opportunity to fulfill her \u201cdream\u201d of representing America in a high-stakes championship.<\/p>\n

Springsteen, who studied psychology at Duke University, \u201chas really come into her own this year,\u201d\u00a0equestrian legend and 1984 gold medalist Melanie Smith Taylor told The Post<\/a>.<\/p>\n

\u201cShe has said early on that she didn\u2019t want to be known as Bruce Springsteen\u2019s daughter alone. She wanted to forge her own path. She\u2019s really doing that. She is very much at the elite level of the sport because of her performance,\u201d Smith Taylor said a few months prior.<\/p>\n

The Rumson, New Jersey, native\u2019s hopes to make an Olympic roster previously fell short in 2016 when her horse endured ongoing leg issues, according to Sports Illustrated<\/a>.<\/p>\n
