This is money received rather than money a rider took home. The sport awards a money prize to the owner or lessee of the horse, so the figure above is what was written to Peter Charles and split afterwards under a private agreement.

The horses paid in Peter Charles's name
Prize money won, by horse
| Horse | Studbook | Born | Paid rounds | Wins | Share | Prize money |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| LIGHTNING TW | Warmblood | 2014 | 3 | 2 | 57.6% | £2,575 |
| CHAWTON | Dutch Warmblood | 2016 | 2 | 1 | 42.4% | £1,894 |
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.
Peter Charles prize money by season
In time order, not sorted
2022 is the best of them, £3,330. 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 Peter Charles
Prize money won, by rider
| Rider | Paid rounds | Wins | Share | Prize money |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Robert Murphy | 4 | 3 | 97.9% | £4,375 |
| Sienna Charles | 1 | 2.1% | £94 |
None of these figures is a rider's income. The money was written to Peter Charles 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.
