Trust me, this place is huge, and it is the most well kept track in the country. Some hilarious person dropped a large coke and it was all over the floor, like 2 minutes there was security there, and like 4 minutes they had someone mopping it up, it is almost like NASA. I can't do any ticket firework displays when I get smoked now because I get yelled at

seeing you in action will be worth the price of admission for many out-of-towners. they may not be used to that level of action.

Scav is currently moving around some cash to make sure he can unload on the wise words of Charles Simon and Mr. Byk.

Tomorrow I love Ramazutti in the stakes. LOVE

actually it may be the best you will find. I haven't been to many actually but its on par with Arlington, the track. Nothing scary, actually in the restaurant it has an upscale feel. It was just renovated last year, the interior.

it might not be a bad idea given the proximity to the track. Could eat drink talk and play horses!

would need to make reservations though.
