Sixteen races into the current season, Dylan Whelan is still waiting for his first winner. It is a tough spell, but context matters: Whelan has only been riding professionally since 2021, which means he is still in the early stages of a career that takes most jockeys years to properly find their feet.Based on TrackLab's analysis

TrackLab's jockey breakdown
Four years in, the numbers are lean — zero wins from 16 rides this season, with the same blank scorecard over the past twelve months. But rides themselves are currency at this stage of a jockey's career. Getting into the saddle at all means trainers believe you are worth putting on their horses, and that trust is the first rung of the ladder. The winners tend to follow for those who keep climbing.
