£1,277 won from 8 paid rounds and 2 wins between 2022 and 2026, ranked 849 of 3,331 riders show jumping has paid.

Iwan Carpenter prize money by season

In time order, not sorted

3 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. MERLLYNS SPECIAL ILLUSION alone accounts for 30.7% of everything Iwan Carpenter 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. Iwan Carpenter has won 2 of these outright.

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 Iwan Carpenter won?

£1,277 across 8 paid rounds between 2022 and 2026, which ranks 849 of the 3,331 riders show jumping has paid.

Does Iwan Carpenter 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 Iwan Carpenter's biggest prize?

£350 for finishing 4th in the The Breen Equestrian Beethoven 7 & 8 Year Old Championship at Hickstead in 2026.

Which horse has won Iwan Carpenter the most?

MERLLYNS SPECIAL ILLUSION, £393 across 2 paid rounds, which is 30.7% of everything Iwan Carpenter has won.

Does Iwan Carpenter 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.
