Neve Bennett

Her most regular partnership is with trainer Jarlath P Fahey, who has put her up 18 times this season. That faith from the yard clearly hasn't dried up, which matters — trainers who stop believing in a jockey simply stop calling. Eighteen rides from one stable suggests Fahey sees something worth persisting with, even if the results haven't followed yet.

The honest truth is that 27 rides without a winner is a difficult run, but it isn't unusual in a sport where even established jockeys can go weeks between wins. What Bennett has on her side is time. Four years in, she is still at the stage where experience accumulates faster than results do, and a single good week can shift the picture entirely.
