Four years into a riding career is still relatively early days. Many jockeys take time to build the right relationships with trainers, find their feet in competitive fields, and start converting opportunities into wins. The number in brackets after her name — the (5) — tells you she currently claims a 5lb weight allowance, meaning the horses she rides carry 5 pounds less than they otherwise would. That is a genuine advantage she brings to any yard that books her, and it is the main tool available to a claiming jockey still building their career.

The honest picture is that the winners have not come yet, but eleven rides shows she is still getting opportunities. In jump racing and the lower tiers of the flat, that is not nothing. The next winner, when it comes, will be the one that changes the shape of her record entirely.
