Behind the Bit follows Sasha and her team as they are accepted into Mr Conner's prestigious clinic, held on campus during the mid-winter break. The stakes are even higher when they learn that scouts from the Youth Equestrian National Team will be present, searching for new members.

To succeed, the girls must work together as a teamβ€”a difficult task given the current state of their group. Sasha and her former best friend Callie aren't speaking, a new guy is nursing a not-so-secret, unrequited crush, and Heather is on the outs due to her boyfriend-stealing habits. Adding more drama, a certain horseback-riding diva from Wellington makes a sudden reappearance.

Can the team put their differences aside and collaborate to reach a national level? Or will their disagreements drive them apart once and for all?
