Ellen Lee Jackson owns and manages Victory Rose Thoroughbreds, in Vacaville, Calif. This 67-acre training and breeding facility is now in its 19th year of operation. The farm is centrally located 55 miles east of Golden Gate Fields, 15 miles West of U.C. Davis Veterinary Hospital and offers easy highway access off I-80 or Highway 505.

Victory Rose is a full-service breeding facility with conscientious care, all-night camera surveillance and the Foal Alert system for foaling mares. Dr. Irwin Liu, internationally renown equine reproductive specialist, personally oversees the busy breeding program. Victory Rose will stand eight stallions in 2010.

All 2010 stud fees will be discounted 25 percent for CTBA members to help stimulate our industry.
In collaboration with Dr. Irwin Liu, Victory Rose has established a unique niche in the breeding industry by specializing in sub-fertile stallions and problem mares. While not all of the stallions at Victory Rose have prior fertility problems, many breeding shed disappointments have been returned to top conception producers. We find barren mares a challenge rather than a disappointment or problem!
From birth to retirement, Victory Rose handles all phases of your horse's care. Foaling-out, halter breaking, sales preparation, ground breaking, saddle breaking, legging-up, race training, mare care, lay-ups and rehabilitation. We offer race training at the farm or racetrack. We use the Maryland shin program to condition all our young stock. Our intimate relationship with U. C. Davis provides us with the best in surgical options and cutting edge veterinary care. Victory Rose keeps a large sampling of weanlings, yearlings and horses of racing age on hand to represent their stallions. An excellent place to privately purchase race or breeding stock, visitors are always very welcome.
