Any suggestions on how to get tickets for around 200-300 each (not in the in-field)?

Thanks John

You can check eBay and Stub Hub starting in early April. With the economy in the tubes this year, I bet you can get Section 124-128 tickets on eBay for under $300 each.

I assume you are not interested in their new Infield Club, in which you can get Derby/Oaks tickets for $175 each (click on link below).

I would be interested in these tickets if I can see the track and there is some barrier from all the craziness. But, I don't know. I am a rookie. I don't know the trade-offs between all the ticket types. Any information would be greatly appreciated.
