Four years into a training career and still waiting for that first winner — E Sheehy is one of racing's patient optimists. Since setting up the yard in 2021, not a single horse has crossed the line first, and the past twelve months have brought 72 runners without a winner to show for it.Based on TrackLab's analysis

TrackLab's trainer breakdown
The most regular partnership in the yard is with jockey Harry Sexton, who has taken the ride 15 times without success. The horse Queenie St Clair has had eight races under the Sheehy banner, also without a win. At this point, both horse and jockey have become familiar faces in the places — just not in the winner's enclosure.
There is not much to dress up here. Four years is a meaningful stretch in training, and 72 runners in a single season shows the yard is active and willing. The winners simply haven't come. When that first one arrives, it will have been a long time coming — and nobody in the yard will need reminding of that.
