It ain't easy being a race fan in the Philly area.
If you hit traffic right, it's less than a 40-minute drive down 95 to Del Park. The quality of horses isn't much better than Philly (probably worse), and the cards often turn into a parade of favorites (since opening day, faves have won 48%), but it sure is prettier and the takeout isn't as usurious.
