Commandant Geoff Curran prize money by season

A show jumping career does not climb the way a contract does. It moves with whichever horse is sound and in form, so a season with a top horse out of work looks like a collapse and is not one. Bishops Quarter alone accounts for 35.3% of everything Commandant Geoff Curran has won.

Every figure is converted to sterling so the rounds can be added up: show jumping pays in the currency of wherever it is run, which is euros at most of the calendar, sterling at the British shows and Swiss francs at Geneva. Commandant Geoff Curran has won 2 of these outright.

Frequently asked questions

How much prize money has Commandant Geoff Curran won?

£29,014 across 13 paid rounds between 2022 and 2026, which ranks 122 of the 3,331 riders show jumping has paid.

Does Commandant Geoff Curran keep that money?

Not all of it, and often not most of it. A money prize in equestrian sport is awarded to the owner of the horse rather than to the rider, and the rider is paid a share of it under a private agreement, usually alongside a monthly fee for keeping the horse in work. A rider who owns the horse keeps the whole cheque.

What is Commandant Geoff Curran's biggest prize?

£5,100 for winning the Ripon Select Foods Puissance at Horse of the Year Show in 2022.

Which horse has won Commandant Geoff Curran the most?

Bishops Quarter, £10,237 across 3 paid rounds, which is 35.3% of everything Commandant Geoff Curran has won.

Does Commandant Geoff Curran have a salary?

No. Show jumping pays no wage at any level: there is no contract with a federation, no appearance money at most shows and no retainer. The money on this page is the whole of what the sport paid, and it was paid one round at a time.
