Trainer Bio

Began his career at Canterbury Park in Shakopee, Minn.

Grew up in Heron, South Dakota, Ness was introduced to the sport by his father, John, and his late grandfather, L.A. Larson. Ness' dynamite season started at Tampa Bay Downs, where he finished the 2011-12 meet with a track-record 79 victories from 168 starts, a surreal win rate of 47 percent. 

Ness is nearing 1,900 wins for over $26 million in purses earned.  In both 2010 and 2011, Ness was second in the nation in victories by a trainer and in 2012, Ness led the nation for wins with 395.  The 2012 total was more than 100 victories more than his closest competitor.  In the winter, Ness is based at Tampa Bay Downs, with strings running in Florida, New York, Maryland and Arkansas.

In the summer, Ness is based at Delaware Park, racing throughout the East coast.  Some top recent runners for Midwest and Ness include Lady of Greatness, See I A and Guam Typhoon. This summer, look for the return of Guam Typhoon, along with the emergence of Tori's Guy and recent claims Don Dulce and Harling's Darling.

Ness trains for leading owners Midwest Thoroughbreds and oversees 120 horses and 60 employees, including five assistant trainers. Odessa is home to Ness and his wife, Mandy, who helps manage the operation.
