After a difficult start to his career in the sulky, there was no holding back the emotions as Sean O’Sullivan brought up his maiden win as a driver at Geelong on Wednesday night.
The 19-year-old waved the whip in triumph as 11-year-old Realy Under Fire won the Devcon Properties Pace, and then wiped tears of joy from his face in the moments after the victory.
Some of the happiness was surely because the horse is family-owned and trained by his legendary father Jim, but also the fact that the result was such a long time coming.
