Austria 2 prize money

£147,792 won from 2 paid rounds and 1 win between 2019 and 2021, ranked 26 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.

Austria 2 prize money by season

In time order, not sorted

2 seasons

A horse's career is a window rather than a climb. 2019 is the best of them, £136,752, when the horse was 11. 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.

1 rider

Rider Paid rounds Wins Span Share Prize money
Kent Farrington 2 1 2019 to 2021 100% £147,792

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.

Every figure is converted to sterling so the rounds can be added up: show jumping pays in the currency of wherever it is run, euros across most of the calendar, sterling at the British shows and Swiss francs at Geneva. Austria 2 has won 1 of these outright.

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.

Frequently asked questions

Who rides Austria 2?

Kent Farrington has ridden Austria 2 for every paid round of its career, 2 of them between 2019 and 2021.

Who owns Austria 2?

Take The High Road, LLC is the owner of record on every of Austria 2's paid results, which is who the prize money is written to. An owner of record can be a person, a syndicate or a stable, and where the rider's own name appears they own the horse and keep the whole cheque.

What is Austria 2's biggest prize?

£136,752 for winning the 19th Rolex IJRC Top 10 Final at CHI Geneva in 2019.

How old is Austria 2?

Born in 2008, so it was 11 when it was first paid at this level and 13 at its most recent result. A show jumper rarely reaches a five-star Grand Prix before eight and is rarely still in one after sixteen.

What is Austria 2 worth?

Nothing on this page is a sale price. A Grand Prix horse changes hands privately and the figure is never published, and the winnings are usually a fraction of what the horse cost. What is here is what the animal was paid in the ring.
