It supposed to be really nice weather all this weekend, Cheapside is good downtown because they have a really nice outdoor patio...other then the patio its just another bar. Furlongs is really good for cajun food and has a awesome horse racing atmosphere. If you want to go out for drinks on friday night go to McCarthy's which is downtown its a good place, its cheap and has horse racing stuff all over the walls. Plus you never know who you might see there since a lot of horse people hang out there.

For the races I would hang out in the paddock and if you want to catch a race from another track or need a drink take the esclator up to the second floor bar. You can stand on the balcony there over looking the paddock too which is a awesome view. Get to the track early on Saturday and bring a case of beer and hang out at your car and walk around a little bit, everyone tailgates before the races.
