Fame prize money

£5,448 won from 8 paid rounds and 2 wins between 2022 and 2023, ranked 614 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.

Fame prize money by season

In time order, not sorted

2 seasons

A horse's career is a window rather than a climb. 2022 is the best of them, £3,818, when the horse was 12. 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.

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.

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. Fame has won 2 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

How much has Fame won?

£5,448 across 8 paid rounds between 2022 and 2023, which ranks 614 of the 8,505 horses show jumping has paid.

Who rides Fame?

2 riders have been paid on Fame. Richard Howley has won the most on it, £4,700 across 2 rounds, which is 86.3% of the horse's total.

Who owns Fame?

Sarah Borthwick is the owner of record on most of Fame'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 Fame's biggest prize?

£3,300 for winning the Grandstand Welcome Stakes at Horse of the Year Show in 2022.

How old is Fame?

Born in 2010, so it was 12 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 Fame 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.
