Looking for a book I read in our school’s library in around 1973 about a white horse named “Olympic” who became a show jumper (not the true story of “Snowman”). Set in the US I think. Softcover.

This sounds like one of my favorites from childhood, Horsepower by Patsey Gray (note that there is an “e” in Patsey, that will be key to finding a copy!). Here’s a link to the Kirkus review of the book:

Illustrated by the wonderful Sam Savitt, it came out in hardcover from Norton and paperback from Young Reader’s Press
