Nicolas Delmotte prize money by season

In time order, not sorted

2 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. Ilex v. alone accounts for 80.9% of everything Nicolas Delmotte 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 Nicolas Delmotte won?

£18,240 across 5 paid rounds between 2018 and 2021, which ranks 181 of the 3,331 riders show jumping has paid.

Does Nicolas Delmotte 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 Nicolas Delmotte's biggest prize?

£8,547 for finishing 11th in the Rolex Grand Prix at CHI Geneva in 2018.

Which horse has won Nicolas Delmotte the most?

Ilex v., £14,757 across 2 paid rounds, which is 80.9% of everything Nicolas Delmotte has won.

Does Nicolas Delmotte 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.
