How to divide up the winnings at a horse show?
I have sent my son’s show horse to a new trainer. The trainer is wanting to take my son’s horse to a horse show and show him. The trainers sister is also going to be showing the horse. The trainer as well as her sister will be paying for their own classes. With me being the owner of the horse am I entitled to any of the winnings that the trainer and her sister win.
Hmmm, Well I must admit that this stumps me a bit because there are several factors involved. If this trainer is showing the horse as part of the training process, as to get the horse trained for shows and is paying for the entry fees, then I would not think you would be entitled to any purse money. You are no doubt paying the trainer for her expertise and experience, and I would think that by both the trainer and her sister paying their own fees, that would be part of the training process.
A few years ago I sent my horse to a guy for training and he entered in a competition as part of the training. He did win the competition, but he got a plaque and a belt buckle for winning. He paid for the entry fee, and I just considered it part of the training.
But in all honesty, I wouldn’t worry about prize money unless it is a HUGE amount of money. And My guess is that it would not be that much and she probably consideres it part of training the horse. Good luck
