The winner takes 50% of the fund, and the four places behind share the remaining €40,000 on a ladder France Galop publishes rather than one the racecourse sets race by race. Both ladders are below: what each place is worth, and what each of the owner, the trainer and the rider takes out of the €80,000.

Run in 1:43.93 in 2023, Prix Perth pays €770 for every second of the race, which is 449th of the 611 races in horse racing prize money per second and 82nd in France.

Where the Prix Perth prize money goes

France Galop sets the shares

€80,000 in the fund

Finishing place Share of the fund What it is worth
Winner 50% €40,000
Second 20% €16,000
Third 15% €12,000
Fourth 10% €8,000
Fifth 5% €4,000
Winner €40k

Who takes it Share of the fund Out of this purse
Owner 75% €60,000
Trainer 14% €11,200
Jockey 8.5% €6,800
Social charges 2.5% €2,000

Every share here is a percentage of the €80,000 fund rather than of the winner's cheque, and the rider's figure covers the whole field rather than the winning rider alone. The same rule pays every race in the country, and where a purse goes in France works it out across all of them.

What a French-bred horse adds on top

Open to three-year-olds and older horses, so the race pays two rates

Paid alongside the prize

France is the one country here where the purse is not the end of the money.

Horse Rate Premium on the race Premium to the winner
Horses of 2 and 3, outside Group 1 75% €60,000 €30,000
Horses of 4 and over, outside Group 1 45% €36,000 €18,000

The premium is paid on top of the purse rather than out of it, and in full. A second premium goes to the breeder who produced the horse, charged on the prize and the owner's premium together: 13% where the covering took place in France.
