Travis Dunkelberger
 

this guy riding anywhere?, i just remember a few year ago he was on Ramon Dominguez status. Then he got hurt and poof! where the hell is he

I think I remember him listed at Charlestown or Mountaineer recently. I hope I am not mixing up Ryan Fogelsonger and Travis Dunkelberger.:confused:

i remember when i used to go to charlestown he was there. and then he moved on to the tracks in md. not really sure where he is at now.

He was never NEAR Ramon Dominguez status, and I have no idea how you could ever think he was.
What he was doing a few years back was riding day and night at different tracks in the Md/Del/WV area and winning a lotta cheap races.
I believe he took a VERY bad spill and missed 6 months a year or two back. he still rides in the same circuit.

Dunkleberger is THE rider at Charles Town, and has been for a few years now.

I always get those two mixed up. Imagine trying to incorporate the names Fogelsonger and Dunkelberger into a stretch call......

He's nowhere close to Ramon is right. However, what the guy is, is an outstanding gate rider, which wins him a TON of 4.5 furlong races at CT.

Fogelsonger battles Pino and Napravnik for riding titles in Maryland pretty frequently. Can't imagine Rosie's going to stick around the mid-Atlantic circuit altogether too long though.

Dunks is a solid rider. I've never seen more horses get bet down strictly on the basis of a jockey than any given ride by Dunkleberger at Charles Town. Read the results on any given night.

What a great name though!!

Dunkleberger is getting a very bad reputation for calling the track vet/stewards attention to his mounts. I can understand if he doesn't feel safe, but he can't think the soundest of runners will be found at CT in a Wednesday night 3500 clamier. He is a good rider, but beware the "safe" ride on what looks liek a lock. He protects himself over giving an honest effort these days.

Don't I know that. It seems like at least once a night one of his mounts is scratched because of the recommendation of the state veterinarian. I would bet the farm on him any time he has the mount on Outcashem though.

Outcashem bled

Outcashem bled? When? I hadn't seen him start in a while.

Started at Mountaineer bout 2 weeks ago, went off at 3-5, bled, finished last.

Dang, Outcashem has been just automatic lately. I think he'd won like eight or ten starts in a row.

that was outcashem's second loss in a row......he went off at like 1/10 at the timonium fair and got bumped out due to a DQ. your right though that horse was money for a long time.

I'd like to see her ride at Aqueduct. That's the perfect time and place for a young rider to make a move.
