Chao Lee prize money
£10,269 won from 3 paid rounds and 0 wins between 2021 and 2024, ranked 341 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.

Chao Lee prize money by season
In time order, not sorted
A horse's career is a window rather than a climb. 2021 is the best of them, £5,141, when the horse was 8. 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.

|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Katrin Eckermann | 3 | 2021 to 2024 | 100% | £10,269 |
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.

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.

Who owns Chao Lee?
Otmar Eckermann is the owner of record on every of Chao Lee'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.

£5,128 for finishing 2nd in the Coral Reef Ranch & BPV Belastingadviseurs Prize at CSI Ommen in 2021.
How old is Chao Lee?

What is Chao Lee 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.
