How much does a PSL cost for Derby tickets in a section like 122-126? Are there any available still? What other ways to people on here get tickets? I have heard something about twinspires offering members a chance to buy tickets at face value in the past. What is the deal with that? Thanks for any info. I know the expensive online broker option is always available but would like to avoid that if possible.

Yeah, I was offered extra ticket in addition to the ones I had already purchased last year, I'm guessing because of the economy. Seems to me that CD has picked an awkward time to try to gouge even more money out of their customers. Who really has a gang of expendable income around these days anyway?

Did they guarantee you the same seats you purchased last year and are they still available for a PSL?

When I get back to my office later this week, I am going to read through the PSL contract they had me sign last year.

All you have to do is call 502-636-4447 and the person answering the phone in the Churchill Downs Premium Seating office will try to sell you a PSL and should be able to answer your questions. If you do not get through to this number, keep trying as eventually a live voice will answer.

For twinspires, I think you have to earn a large number of TwinSpires points each year to be able to buy tickets -- otherwise, you go into a lottery-type random draw for tickets.

How much does a PSL + ticket cost in a section like 124 or around there?

They aren't selling PSL's for that section anymore, so I'm told.
