£45,017 won from 19 paid rounds and 0 wins between 2018 and 2026, ranked 84 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 Niels Bruynseels's rounds were worth rather than what Niels Bruynseels was paid for riding them. There is no salary anywhere in show jumping to set beside it.

Niels Bruynseels prize money by season

In time order, not sorted

7 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. Gancia de Muze alone accounts for 39.9% of everything Niels Bruynseels 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.

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 Niels Bruynseels won?

£45,017 across 19 paid rounds between 2018 and 2026, which ranks 84 of the 3,331 riders show jumping has paid.

Does Niels Bruynseels 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 Niels Bruynseels's biggest prize?

£17,949 for finishing 6th in the 18th Rolex IJRC Top 10 Final at CHI Geneva in 2018.

Which horse has won Niels Bruynseels the most?

Gancia de Muze, £17,949 across 1 paid rounds, which is 39.9% of everything Niels Bruynseels has won.

Does Niels Bruynseels 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.
