The horses paid in Abbie Crippen's name
Prize money won, by horse
| Horse | Studbook | Born | Paid rounds | Wins | Share | Prize money |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| HANDSOME | KWPN | 2012 | 2 | 95.8% | £4,534 | |
| BILLY KVITFJELL | 1 | 1 | 4.2% | £200 |
Prize money is not what an owner's balance sheet runs on, and a string this size makes the point: the entry fees, the transport, the stabling and the rider's monthly fee all come out before any of this does. The return on a show jumper is what it sells for, and the winnings are the advertisement.
Abbie Crippen prize money by season
In time order, not sorted
2024 is the best of them, £3,534. An owner's season moves with whichever horse is sound, and a year that falls away is usually one good horse out of work rather than a smaller string.
Who rode for Abbie Crippen
Prize money won, by rider
| Rider | Paid rounds | Wins | Share | Prize money |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Simon Crippen | 2 | 95.8% | £4,534 | |
| Bryony Jones | 1 | 1 | 4.2% | £200 |
None of these figures is a rider's income. The money was written to Abbie Crippen and the rider's share of it is a private agreement, usually a percentage on top of a monthly fee for keeping the horse in work.

Why does the owner get the money and not the rider?
Because the sport writes it that way. A money prize in equestrian sport is awarded to the owner or lessee of the horse, and the athlete is paid out of it under a private agreement rather than by the show. The reasoning is that the horse is the entrant and the expense: the entry fee, the transport, the stabling and the groom are all the owner’s bill, and the prize money is the return on it.
