KINGFISHER prize money
£3,633 won from 5 paid rounds and 0 wins between 2023 and 2026, ranked 830 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.

KINGFISHER prize money by season
In time order, not sorted
A horse's career is a window rather than a climb. 2024 is the best of them, £3,085, when the horse was 9. 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.

3 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.

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 KINGFISHER won?
£3,633 across 5 paid rounds between 2023 and 2026, which ranks 830 of the 8,505 horses show jumping has paid.
Who rides KINGFISHER?
3 riders have been paid on KINGFISHER. Paul Sims has won the most on it, £3,085 across 2 rounds, which is 84.9% of the horse's total.
Who owns KINGFISHER?
Philip Gray is the owner of record on most of KINGFISHER'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 KINGFISHER's biggest prize?
£3,051 for finishing 2nd in the International Showjumping - Ripon Select Foods Puissance at Horse of the Year Show in 2024.
How old is KINGFISHER?
Born in 2015, so it was 8 when it was first paid at this level and 11 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 KINGFISHER 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.
