As recounted by Jay Hovdey, author of Charlie Whittingham’s biography and an acclaimed racing journalist, Whittingham’s son Taylor died as a result of drug abuse and he took Rash under his wing. Associates of Rash also told reporters how Whittingham had been very patient with the young man, bailing him out of jail and making reparations for the damage Rash had done. By 1987, the then twenty- eight-year-old Rash had turned his life around and dedicated himself to his training duties. He worked his way up to become Whittingham’s head assistant then in April 1991 opened his own training operation.

Another international racehorse owner, American Gary A. Tanaka entrusted Rash with the conditioning of his first horses and credits the young trainer with introducing him to Thoroughbred racing. During his short career as a licensed trainer, Rodney Rash had two horses run in the American Classics, finishing eighth in the 1994 Kentucky Derby and in the Preakness Stakes, an eighth with Honor Grades and ninth with Powis Castle. He also had had four Breeders’ Cup starters, but none finished in the money. His most significant win came in 1995 when he won the Santa Anita Handicap with Urgent Request.
