Horse of the Year Show prize money

£964,992 paid out across 125 classes and 1,169 placings between 2021 and 2025.

A show is a calendar rather than a single prize fund: every class carries a pot of its own, and the money is split down the placings rather than paid to the winner. The Leading Showjumper of the Year - Grand Prix is the largest of them here, £48,900.
