FOR FREEDOM EKT prize money
£4,983 won from 7 paid rounds and 0 wins between 2024 and 2026, ranked 662 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.

FOR FREEDOM EKT prize money by season
In time order, not sorted
A horse's career is a window rather than a climb. 2025 is the best of them, £1,859, when the horse was 13. 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.
