Dale Romans Biography

Dale Romans is one of the most popular and richest Trainer who was born on August 14, 1966 in Louisville, Kentucky, United States.

Dale Romans is the son of trainer Jerry Romans and grew up around horses at Churchill Downs in Louisville. He graduated from Butler High School in 1984 despite suffering from dyslexia. Romans worked for his father from a young age. He once said, “I had a way with the horses. I could walk the worst horse in the country when I was 10 years old. My parents were divorced, and if my father had a bad horse he couldn’t get on the van he’d come and get me at home to load the horse. I don’t know what it was about horses, but they saved me as a child. The guys who worked for my dad took me in and I always felt at home here. I didn’t have to worry about reading and writing. I could communicate with the horses. Whatever primal instinct we have with horses, we’re connected to them.”

At age eighteen, Romans embarked on a career as a trainer, getting his first winner on February 15, 1987 at Turfway Park with Miss Mindy, who he had purchased for $1,500. His career was slow to take off. He won only four races in each of 1987 and 1989, and only 21 races in each of 1988 and 1990. It was not until 1991 that he won his first stakes race at Turfway Park with Morning Punch, and not until 1996 that he won his first graded stakes race at Aqueduct with Victor Avenue.
