Martin Fuchs prize money

£1,189,318 won from 28 paid rounds and 3 wins between 2018 and 2026, ranked 1 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 Martin Fuchs's rounds were worth rather than what Martin Fuchs was paid for riding them. There is no salary anywhere in show jumping to set beside it.

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. Leone Jei alone accounts for 55.3% of everything Martin Fuchs 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. Martin Fuchs has won 3 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 Martin Fuchs won?

£1,189,318 across 28 paid rounds between 2018 and 2026, which ranks 1 of the 3,331 riders show jumping has paid.

Does Martin Fuchs 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 Martin Fuchs's biggest prize?

£333,333 for winning the Rolex Grand Prix at CHI Geneva in 2019.

Which horse has won Martin Fuchs the most?

Leone Jei, £657,733 across 4 paid rounds, which is 55.3% of everything Martin Fuchs has won.

Does Martin Fuchs 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.
