The "(7)" next to her name is a weight allowance — a small advantage granted to inexperienced jockeys to help level the playing field while they build their career. It means the horses she rides carry 7 pounds less than they otherwise would, which can make a real difference in a close finish. As she rides more winners, that allowance will reduce, and eventually disappear altogether. The clock is ticking on that perk, which gives every win added significance right now.
The most interesting thread in her short career so far is her partnership with trainer Andrew Slattery. Of her 41 rides, 30 have come for his yard, and she has won 6 of them — a win rate of 20%, or 1 in every 5. That kind of consistency with one trainer suggests a working relationship built on trust, and it is unusual to see that level of loyalty and productivity this early in a jockey's career. When Slattery puts her up, it is clearly not just to fill a saddle.
There is also an early hint that she handles wet and muddy ground well. She has only had 3 rides in those conditions so far, but she has won 1 of them — a return of 33%, or 1 in every 3. That is
