Can you give me a specific track that is running during those first two weeks that I should check out?

I have been 'given' one day to go to the races, , want to utilize it on the best one possible!

Google.

This link shows feature races from January 2012. You can at least see what tracks are running in January. I doubt the tracks running January 2013 will be a ton different. I'm sure there are a ton of smaller tracks running during the week, but my 30 seconds looking didn't turn up a list.

I'll try for this but I am guessing I will be under restraints most of the trip.

Thanks alot. If you had to choose between Caulfield and Flemington, which one would you think an American would like to experience?

I'm gonna try for both!

What the hell kind of restraints are you going to be under? You are looking for God Damn racetracks to go to..........

If we get to go, I've been told that I only get one day of horse racing. I would want three, but I am hopefully going to win another day somehow.

I'm not really sure if its even reasonable considering the cost but we have always talked about going there so what the hell. We'll see if we can make it work.
