IF your girl is big into horses (not necessarily horse racing), she could enjoy this. Of course if you are in Lexington, it is not a big deal to drive and extra hour and a half to just check out CD, purely for historic reasons.
What he said. This is all assuming of course that your fiance has as much of an interest in horses as do you. Several farms have hours for tours, and there are companies that will take you on a guided tour of a few farms, which is nice because they can give you the local flavor. Round out your horse experience with a visit at Old Friends.

One more thing:
Bourbon Trail.
