That kind of dip is not unusual for young riders. The allowance that makes them attractive to trainers in the early days gradually shrinks as wins accumulate, and the horses that come their way can become harder to win on as a result. Lewis has done the bulk of her work alongside trainer Thomas Faulkner, with 30 of her rides in the past year coming from his yard — but that partnership has produced just the single winner, a 3% return that reflects the season as a whole rather than anything specific to that relationship.
Her numbers look slightly better on normal ground, where she has won 1 from 22 races — around 1 in every 22 — suggesting she is more comfortable when conditions are straightforward rather than testing. The three races she has shared with Desiderata have yet to yield a win, though three runs together is too small a sample to read much into.
At this stage of a riding career, the wins matter less than the miles. Lewis is accumulating experience, learning tracks, and riding through a difficult spell that most jockeys face at some point. The question for the season ahead is whether she can rediscover the form that made her a 10% winner twelve months ago.
