Hello pjmulberry-ga,
According to an article in Racenews last April, "the world's richest
National Hunt race" is the (as of last year) $1.2 million Nakayama
Grand Jump.

Similarly, a BBC Sport article from the same month described the
Nakayama Grand Jump as "the richest steeplechase race in the world".
