So there's this book about winged horses and their riders. A middle/lower-class farmer girl finds a pregnant mare and brings her to her family's barn, where the mare gives birth to a winged foal. She bonds with the foal (a colt) and is taken to an academy where she is snubbed by all the higher-class students. She comes into her own however and the book ends with her about to compete in a tournament. I believe this is a series? All I know is that it had a huge impression on me when I was younger. Any knowledge?
