For fine dining, if memory serves me correct, there's a quaint little village just down the road with 8 million+ residents called Chicago. If the gods are with you, there may still be a restaurant open there after the last race ends at approximately 5:00 P.M.

Can you not read?

get your seats ahead of time. info for them is on AP's website, arlingtonpark.com

The hotel right next to the track is a Sheraton and is definitely walking distance from the track.

If you want to be in the 2nd level (reserved/box seats), I'd personally recommend the box seats in section F or G. F ($60) is 1 section closer to the finish line than G, but G ($40) is right in front of the jumbotron. The clubhouse box seats ($75) would be near the finish line.

Any 2nd level seat is a good place to watch the race from.
