About A Dream prize money
£38,568 won from 2 paid rounds and 1 win between 2018 and 2019, ranked 81 of 8,505 horses show jumping has paid.
The money is the horse's because the sport says it is. A money prize in equestrian sport is awarded to the owner of the horse rather than to the rider, so a horse carries a career total here in the way a racehorse does, and the rider's share of it is a private agreement that is never published.

About A Dream prize money by season
In time order, not sorted
A horse's career is a window rather than a climb. 2018 is the best of them, £31,731, when the horse was 9. A season that falls away is usually a horse being rested or managed rather than a horse in decline, and the gap between two good years is the most ordinary thing on this chart.
Who has been paid on About A Dream

| Rider | Paid rounds | Wins | Span | Share | Prize money |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Pius Schwizer | 2 | 1 | 2018 to 2019 | 100% | £38,568 |
One rider for the whole of it, which is the ordinary case: a top horse and its rider are a partnership built over years, and a change of rider usually means a sale.

| Premium Mares Ltd | 2 | £38,568 |
More than one name here is not a dispute. The owner of record is whoever was registered with the horse on the day the class was jumped, so a sale, a new syndicate member or a change of stable name all show up as a second row.
