In collaboration with U.C. Davis, 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 over the
years. 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 with our newly
installed
six-horse
freestyle Equi-Ciser are all services available at Victory
Rose. 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. As an excellent place to privately purchase race
or breeding stock, visitors are always very welcome.
