Con McSweeney is one of the newer faces in the training ranks, having only taken out his licence in April 2024 — meaning everything on his record has been built in just over a year. It is a small sample, but it is what it is: one winner from 14 runners, a win rate of around 1 in every 14. For a yard still finding its feet, that is not a disaster, but there is clearly work to do.Based on TrackLab's analysis

TrackLab's trainer breakdown
The most intriguing thread running through his short career so far is his partnership with Russellsbelle. Seven races together and no wins yet — which is the kind of stat that can mean two things. Either horse and trainer have not quite clicked, or they are patiently waiting for the right opportunity. Whether that patience pays off is one of the small storylines worth following as McSweeney continues to build his operation.
One genuinely encouraging sign: on slightly soft, damp ground, McSweeney has won 1 from 3 — roughly 1 in 3, which is a dramatically better return than his overall numbers suggest. That is too small a sample to draw firm conclusions from, but it hints that he may have a good eye for placing his horses when conditions suit. A trainer who knows when the ground is in his favour is worth watching when the rain comes.
