Michael Duffy prize money
£16,704 won from 10 paid rounds and 2 wins between 2021 and 2026, ranked 198 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 Michael Duffy's rounds were worth rather than what Michael Duffy was paid for riding them. There is no salary anywhere in show jumping to set beside it.
Michael Duffy prize money by season
In time order, not sorted
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. Jeff Ten Halven alone accounts for 46.6% of everything Michael Duffy has won.

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.

Which horse has won Michael Duffy the most?

Does Michael Duffy 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.
