This is the legal destination of the money rather than a sponsor list. Where the owner is a syndicate or a stable the cheque goes to the company; where the rider's own name appears, they owned the horse and kept the lot.

Frequently asked questions

How much prize money has Edwina Tops-Alexander won?

£23,248 across 4 paid rounds between 2019 and 2019, which ranks 145 of the 3,331 riders show jumping has paid.

Does Edwina Tops-Alexander 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 Edwina Tops-Alexander's biggest prize?

£20,513 for finishing 5th in the Grand Prix Hermès at Saut Hermes, Paris in 2019.

Which horse has won Edwina Tops-Alexander the most?

California, £20,684 across 2 paid rounds, which is 89% of everything Edwina Tops-Alexander has won.

Does Edwina Tops-Alexander 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.
