Oh no...they don't have any insight there at all.

There isn't much to do right around the track. You could go east to either Sea Bright or Long Branch and there should be some nice restuarants / bars there. Alternatively you could take the train back two stops to Red Bank there are a ton of places there. Unless you have a car in the area you options are pretty much limited.

Good Luck.

HH, thanks. I think we're going to try out the Red Bank area...

Good luck to you also.

Basil T's is my favorite place in Red Bank. I knew the brewer, she's good people.

Grandstand Balcony tickets were offered to horsemen and others in the industry. Not sure if they paid or not. Grandstand Balcony is the way to go. Undercover and a great view of the entire track. I think the lines should be shorter up there too.

The NJTHA was given the opportunity to purchase a certain # of tickets. They sent out a letter to the membership, informed us they had the opportunity to purchase these tickets and would be offering them for sale only to the NJTHA membership. Members, of course, had the opportunity to not go through the NJHTA and buy tickets on their own.
