Maryk Sahney holds 84.5% of the India total alone. That is the ordinary shape of a prize-money sport rather than a quirk of this country: the money follows the horses that can jump the biggest classes, and a nation rarely has more than two or three of them at once.

What India wins each season

In time order, not sorted

3 seasons

2025 is the best season India has had, £1,470. A national total moves with which shows ran and which horses were sound, so a step in this chart is usually a calendar or an injury rather than a change in how good the country is.

The horses India riders are paid on

A horse is credited on every result sheet, and the cheque follows its owner

An owner is not always a person. A stable, a stud or a company can hold the horse, and where it does the prize money is paid to the business and the rider takes a share of it under a private agreement. Every owner the sport has paid is here.
