Based on what I’ve seen, she’d probably win this.

From AOC Day 13 preview page

Canoe Sprint​

After finishing fourth in their heat, the Women’s Kayak Four return for their 500m semi-final with an eye to finish in the top two to secure their place in Final A.
Similarly, the Men’s Kayak Four are back in action for their 500m semi-final, where they will need to finish in the fastest four to lock in their Final A berth.
The women will be on the water at 7:40pm AEST, with the men at 7:50pm AEST. If they qualify to their respective Finals, they’ll return at 9:40pm and 9:50pm AEST respectively.

[They have both qualified]

Bad race for the Aussies. Slow start and couldn’t recover.

That was a tough battle with Germany who get silver with Hungary finishing 3rd to get bronze, the Aussies off the pace in 8th.
