FLAMBOYANT III prize money
£84,939 won from 12 paid rounds and 1 win between 2022 and 2026, ranked 42 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.

FLAMBOYANT III prize money by season
In time order, not sorted
A horse's career is a window rather than a climb. 2026 is the best of them, £32,095, when the horse was 16. 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.

| Rider | Paid rounds | Wins | Span | Share | Prize money |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| William Whitaker | 12 | 1 | 2022 to 2026 | 100% | £84,939 |
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 round FLAMBOYANT III has been paid for

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. FLAMBOYANT III 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.

How old is FLAMBOYANT III?

What is FLAMBOYANT III 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.
