I would say the racing at Saratoga is a 10, the atmosphere an 8. The racing at Del Mar is an 8, the atmosphere a 10.

Can't go wrong with either place.


Monmouth is underrated, Keeneland and Gulfstream are overrated.
I disagree on the atmosphere ratings for 'Toga and Del Mar. I've been to both and I think it depends on what kind of atmosphere you enjoy. It also depends on where you hang out at each track. I do agree that you can't go wrong at either place.

The only two days I spent at Monmouth were during the BC deluge last year. I don't think I can pass judgement after that.

Keeneland is vastly overrated and I don't think Gulfstream is on anybody's radar anymore so it's not really overrated.
