Lester prize money
£5,687 won from 4 paid rounds and 0 wins between 2023 and 2026, ranked 584 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.

Lester 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, £4,273, when the horse was 15. 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.

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.

£4,273 for finishing 3rd in the Gemeente De Wolden Prize at CH De Wolden, Zuidwolde in 2026.
How old is Lester?
Born in 2011, so it was 12 when it was first paid at this level and 15 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 Lester 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.
