Andy is right, just call the farms. Amost all of them are happy to take you around. Three Chimney's for example doesn't give regular tours but if you call and set something up they are great. Ashford is always worth seeing just for the overall ambience of the place--and they have an overhead viewing room where you can watch breedings if you want.
If you have some favorite old mare that you want to visit usually that isn't a problem either...when I worked at Trackside there was one woman who came pretty regularly to see Lite Light, she had no affiliation with the mare other than as a fan.

tipping is a must though.

You should also make time to se some of the distilleries (sp?) Woodford Reserve is absolutely beautiful esp. in the spring....I don't even drink but I love to go have luch there on the deck.
