George Whitaker prize money by season

In time order, not sorted

4 seasons

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. Peanut alone accounts for 90.4% of everything George Whitaker has won.

Frequently asked questions

How much prize money has George Whitaker won?

£4,693 across 10 paid rounds between 2022 and 2026, which ranks 442 of the 3,331 riders show jumping has paid.

Does George Whitaker 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 George Whitaker's biggest prize?

£1,500 for finishing 3rd in the NAEC Stoneleigh Stakes at Horse of the Year Show in 2023.

Which horse has won George Whitaker the most?

Peanut, £4,241 across 7 paid rounds, which is 90.4% of everything George Whitaker has won.

Does George Whitaker 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.
