Surely the purpose of cloning should be to obtain a bloodline/ genotype that is not available, not simply to win with a clone. I think there should be regulation to prevent clones themselves competing but to allow progeny of clones to compete. Already we have progeny of dead stallions competing (via frozen semen) so semen from a clone of a gelding is only one step forward.
