One could say that your alchemist supertrainers also fail to hold up their numbers on synthetic and turf and therefore are just as much of a specialist as you are implying that Sheppard is. Sheppard's horses performed big in sprinting, turf, steeplechasing and marathon -- that is pretty good.

I kind of agree with the person who said that if a trainer has had a positive they shouldn't be eligible for the award.
