£2,365 won from 6 paid rounds and 1 win between 2022 and 2025, ranked 622 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 Viktor Melin's rounds were worth rather than what Viktor Melin was paid for riding them. There is no salary anywhere in show jumping to set beside it.

Viktor Melin 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. Turmina alone accounts for 59.8% of everything Viktor Melin 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. Viktor Melin has won 1 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 Viktor Melin won?

£2,365 across 6 paid rounds between 2022 and 2025, which ranks 622 of the 3,331 riders show jumping has paid.

Does Viktor Melin 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 Viktor Melin's biggest prize?

£855 for winning the Harry's Horse Prijs at Outdoor Gelderland, Lichtenvoorde in 2022.

Which horse has won Viktor Melin the most?

Turmina, £1,414 across 3 paid rounds, which is 59.8% of everything Viktor Melin has won.

Does Viktor Melin 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.
