beyond $30,000 vials of pedigreed racehorse sperm

I don't believe that any horse that is the product of artificial insemination would be considered a thoroughbred by the Jockey Club, and so would not be eligible to race at any US Thoroughbred Racetrack, and probably not at any Thoroughbred Racetrack worldwide.

Artificial insemination is widely used in horse and other animal breeding.

The Jockey Club may issue a ‘racing permit’ for non-thoroughbreds that is accepted by state racing commissions.

I am sure they are very selective in granting this but I don’t know the details.
