If you bet enough on your Twin Spires card you get free admission.
But for the general public at Arlington its $6 admission I believe. I remember on BC day at Arlington there was a nice surprise waiting for the regular patrons when they arrived on BC day, $9 admission!

The food is expensive but not horrible at AP. I think you can still get a hot dog and a coke for $7.50.
