Four years into his training career, Richard James Daniels is still searching for his first winner. Nine runners over the past twelve months and none of them have reached the winner's enclosure — that is a tough run by any measure, and it is the kind of stretch that tests whether someone has the stomach to keep going in one of the hardest jobs in sport.Based on TrackLab's analysis

TrackLab's trainer breakdown
The most telling relationship in his yard so far is with Getaway Master, a horse he has sent out 14 times together for a single win. That is 1 from 14 — a win rate of roughly 7% — which, while modest, does tell you one important thing: Daniels keeps running horses and looking for opportunities rather than simply giving up on them. Whether Getaway Master can add to that solitary victory remains the most interesting question hanging over the yard right now.
Daniels started training in 2021, so he is still in the early years of building an operation. Small yards often spend their first few seasons just finding their feet — learning which horses suit which races, building owner relationships, and figuring out where their horses are competitive. At this stage, the next winner, whenever it comes, will matter more than most.
