TrackLab's jockey breakdown

Over the last 12 months, she has ridden 3 winners from 33 races, which works out at roughly 1 in every 11 — a modest rate on paper, but one that tells only part of the story. Riding opportunities at this level are hard-won, and every winner counts.

Her most important professional relationship is with trainer Wilf Storey, and the numbers back that up. From 27 races together, they have combined for 3 wins — about 1 in every 9 — which is notably better than her overall average. That kind of repeat booking from a single yard is a real vote of confidence. Trainers don't keep calling the same jockey unless something is working.

One detail worth watching is how Muir performs when the ground is soft and the mud starts flying. In those conditions she has won 1 race from just 4 — a 25% rate, or 1 in every 4 rides. That small sample means we shouldn't read too much into it, but it does hint that she may have a feel for horses that need a bit of cut in the ground beneath them. Wet-weather form is a genuine skill, and if that pattern continues, it could become a real calling card.

Still only four years in, Muir is at the stage where reputations are made or stalled. The 33 career winners are a solid foundation, and the Storey partnership gives her a reliable base of rides. The next step is translating that consistency into bigger opportunities — but the building blocks are clearly there.
