See above. We know Aminah is female because you used "she" so there is no need to specify that she's a "female rider".

I find it strange that there is information in the short summary that doesn't appear in the long summary - that she works at her father's workshop. You don't normally add information to create a short summary.

That's a good point. Revised long summary as below. I really hope there is no mistake this time.
