£2,529 won from 24 paid rounds and 3 wins between 2022 and 2026, ranked 607 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 Melody Matheson's rounds were worth rather than what Melody Matheson was paid for riding them. There is no salary anywhere in show jumping to set beside it.

Melody Matheson prize money by season

In time order, not sorted

5 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. Kentucky Balia Nl alone accounts for 42.6% of everything Melody Matheson 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. Melody Matheson has won 3 of these outright.

Frequently asked questions

How much prize money has Melody Matheson won?

£2,529 across 24 paid rounds between 2022 and 2026, which ranks 607 of the 3,331 riders show jumping has paid.

Does Melody Matheson 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 Melody Matheson's biggest prize?

£641 for finishing 3rd in the Horse Power Factory Prize at Outdoor Gelderland, Lichtenvoorde in 2022.

Which horse has won Melody Matheson the most?

Kentucky Balia Nl, £1,078 across 9 paid rounds, which is 42.6% of everything Melody Matheson has won.

Does Melody Matheson 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.
