I doubt we will end up there. It seems that the track comps a lot of tickets and some of those are already for sale on Craigslist. We should be able to come up with tickets pretty easily outside before the races but I always like to have backup plans.

Thanks.
It was the 1st time that we had ever experienced the infield. It really was not bad. You had a good view of the starting gate, upper stretch, and the back stretch, but it was difficult to see down the stretch and the finish line. There were plenty of TV's and betting windows avaialble. However, as the horses ran down the stretch, you did have to run to a TV to see the finish.

Overall though, it was very relaxing and comfortable with a younger and fun crowd. We were winning that day so of course that makes it all the more enjoyable !!!
