Maikel van der Vleuten prize money

£173,430 won from 60 paid rounds and 12 wins between 2021 and 2026, ranked 27 of 3,331 riders show jumping has paid.

Prize money won rather than income. A money prize in this sport is awarded to the owner of the horse, so the figure above is what Maikel van der Vleuten's rounds were worth rather than what Maikel van der Vleuten was paid for riding them. There is no salary anywhere in show jumping to set beside it.

Maikel van der Vleuten prize money by season

In time order, not sorted

6 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. Elwikke alone accounts for 37.2% of everything Maikel van der Vleuten has won.

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 Maikel van der Vleuten won?

£173,430 across 60 paid rounds between 2021 and 2026, which ranks 27 of the 3,331 riders show jumping has paid.

Does Maikel van der Vleuten 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 Maikel van der Vleuten's biggest prize?

£28,205 for winning the Grand Prix of Maastricht at Jumping Indoor Maastricht in 2022.

Which horse has won Maikel van der Vleuten the most?

Elwikke, £64,487 across 11 paid rounds, which is 37.2% of everything Maikel van der Vleuten has won.

Does Maikel van der Vleuten 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.
