| C Vier 2 | HOLST | 2008 | 2 | 1 | 100% | £89,150 |
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.

| Rider | Paid rounds | Wins | Share | Prize money |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| David Will | 2 | 1 | 100% | £89,150 |
None of these figures is a rider's income. The money was written to Janine Rijkens 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.
