Caracas prize money
£2,585 won from 2 paid rounds and 0 wins between 2019 and 2024, ranked 1036 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.

Caracas prize money by season
In time order, not sorted
A horse's career is a window rather than a climb. 2019 is the best of them, £2,564, when the horse was 14. 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 Caracas
Prize money won, by rider
| Rider | Paid rounds | Wins | Span | Share | Prize money |

| Jos Verlooy | 1 | 2019 | 99.2% | £2,564 | |
| Pim Mulder | 1 | 2024 | 0.8% | £21 |
2 riders, which is less ordinary than it sounds at the top of the sport. A horse changes rider when it is sold, when it is lent for a season, or when a young rider brings it on and a senior one takes it over for the big classes.

Competition, placing and cheque
| Place | Competition | Show | Level | Rider | Prize money |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 8 | Coupe de Genève 2019-12-14 | CHI Geneva | CSI5* | Jos Verlooy | £2,564 |

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.

The owners of record on Caracas's results
| Owner of record | Paid rounds | Prize money |
|---|---|---|
| Eurohorse | 1 | £2,564 |
| Pim Mulder | 1 | £21 |
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
How much has Caracas won?
£2,585 across 2 paid rounds between 2019 and 2024, which ranks 1036 of the 8,505 horses show jumping has paid.
Who rides Caracas?
2 riders have been paid on Caracas. Jos Verlooy has won the most on it, £2,564 across 1 rounds, which is 99.2% of the horse's total.
Who owns Caracas?
Eurohorse is the owner of record on most of Caracas'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 Caracas's biggest prize?
£2,564 for finishing 8th in the Coupe de Genève at CHI Geneva in 2019.
How old is Caracas?
Born in 2005, so it was 14 when it was first paid at this level and 19 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 Caracas 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.
