LIGHTNING TW prize money
£2,575 won from 3 paid rounds and 2 wins between 2021 and 2022, ranked 1040 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.

LIGHTNING TW prize money by season
In time order, not sorted
A horse's career is a window rather than a climb. 2022 is the best of them, £1,530, when the horse was 8. 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 |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Robert Murphy | 3 | 2 | 2021 to 2022 | 100% | £2,575 |
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.

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.

Who owns LIGHTNING TW?

What is LIGHTNING TW's biggest prize?
£1,530 for winning the Talent Seekers inc. 7 Year Old Championship at Horse of the Year Show in 2022.
How old is LIGHTNING TW?

What is LIGHTNING TW 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.
