Vistogrand prize money
£15,778 won from 8 paid rounds and 2 wins between 2021 and 2025, ranked 218 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.

Vistogrand 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, £7,070, 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.
Who has been paid on Vistogrand
Prize money won, by rider
| Rider | Paid rounds | Wins | Span | Share | Prize money |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|

| Denis Lynch | 2 | 2024 to 2025 | 19% | £2,998 |
2 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 Vistogrand won?
£15,778 across 8 paid rounds between 2021 and 2025, which ranks 218 of the 8,505 horses show jumping has paid.
Who rides Vistogrand?
2 riders have been paid on Vistogrand. Shane Breen has won the most on it, £12,780 across 6 rounds, which is 81% of the horse's total.
Who owns Vistogrand?
Breen Equestrian Ltd is the owner of record on most of Vistogrand'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 Vistogrand's biggest prize?
£3,710 for winning the Five Fence Challenge at Horse of the Year Show in 2021.
How old is Vistogrand?
Born in 2013, so it was 8 when it was first paid at this level and 12 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 Vistogrand 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.
