Joshua Newman has been riding for four years, turning professional in 2021, and over the past twelve months he has posted three winners from 21 rides — that works out at roughly 1 in every 7 races, a figure that reflects where he is in his career: still building, still learning, but picking up winners along the way.Based on TrackLab's AI analysis

The most interesting thread in his recent record is his partnership with trainer Kayley Woollacott. Two wins from 11 rides together gives them an 18% win rate — nearly 1 in every 5 — which is meaningfully better than his overall numbers and suggests a working relationship worth watching. When a jockey and trainer start clicking like that, it often becomes the foundation everything else is built on.
Newman also has a noticeable edge when the weather turns and the ground softens up. On wet or muddy ground he has won 2 of his 7 races — that's a 29% win rate, or almost 1 in every 3. For a young rider still establishing himself, having a genuine strength in specific conditions is a real asset. It gives trainers a reason to call him when the rain comes in.
Four years in, three winners from 21 rides this season, and a couple of meaningful patterns emerging — Newman is at exactly the stage where the numbers start to tell a story.
