Don't give up on tickets just yet. I paid $150/ticket for section 118 last year at churchill on Ebay. Sat right next to the winners circle. It was incredible and definitely worth the $150. Obviously Monmuth is much smaller than CD but check ebay around Sept/Oct for cheaper tickets than brokers.

I was in Vegas for one, but forwarn you, most of the TV's are taken up with college football games, as there's more $$ bet on them.

AC is a dump. I would say look for tickets on ebay some tickets are already up on ebay, and if you cant get tickets just stay home and watch it on TV.

get ebay, or stay home. my vote as well. and that's coming from someone who can't bet from home. but, there is no place like home!

I bought some Saratoga tix from Ticketsattheraces.com, which has a button on the At the Races radio show site. The prices were a little better than what I found on the other sites and I noticed that they have a bunch of Breeders' Cup tickets. If I get a rejection notice from the BC, I'm going to purchase some there.

Brokers will of course be high as the rejection letters filter into homes... give it some time, you'll get a seat.
