Trainer Bio

Rodney Richards grew up on the racetracks of New Mexico and Oklahoma shadowing his father (jockey turned trainer) and uncle who also trained. Learning the benefits of both, Rodney opened his own stable in 2004 after attending school at the University of Kansas and the Haskel Indian Nations University.  He operates an manageable stable of 15 head including current three-year-old American Dubai who ran third in the Grade 3 Southwest Stakes at Oaklawn Park.  He also conditioned stakes winner King's Water Lily and more recent winner, Black Ops who won a MSW at Churchill Downs in the fall of 2015. 

From his roots in Ruidoso, New Mexico, Rodney is now basing his stable from Oaklawn Park to Churchill Downs. Richards is a hands-on trainer who sometimes rides his own trainees in morning training. With promising colt American Dubai and a new string of 2-year-olds, he is optomistic for a great year.  

Rodney's family includes wife Starlyn, son Chasen.
