SHOW JUMPING · SEASON 2019 · 2 SHOWS

Show jumping prize money in 2019

£2,456,500 paid out across 23 classes and 302 placings, 10.9% of everything this section holds.

A season is a calendar of individual class funds rather than one prize pot, and none of it is a wage. The money is written to the owner of the horse, the rider takes a share of it under a private agreement, and nobody in the sport is paid for turning up.

This is the season on its own rather than a career. A rider who appears here once and nowhere else had one good week, which in a sport with no wage is the ordinary way to be paid. The career money list is here.

2019 against every other season

In time order, not sorted

8 seasons

Against 2018 the payout moved up 30.1%. A season's total moves with which shows ran and how many classes each of them paid, so a step in this chart is usually a calendar rather than a change in what the sport is worth. The 2021 season is here.
