Title: Saratoga seat advice
Post by: justwin on July 25, 2014, 08:23:11 AM
Heading up to Saratoga on Friday Aug. 1. Buying seats on ticketmaster, best seats come up with grandstand sec N row 1. I haven\'t been to Saratoga in a couple of years and can\'t recall if these seats are covered. Don\'t want to sit in the sun all day. Any advice would be appreciated. I will stick around for a few races on Saturday so I will attend the Saturday seminar. looking forward to seeing some of the guys.

Row 1 seats uncovered, but lucky.

no not there today, but when you buy seats at the track they always ask if you want covered or not, so if you call you will be all set.

Try looking in the tickets section on craigslist Albany; you can often get good clubhouse seats for face value or close to it.

fyi, Fri looks like all 5 1/2 f, claimers, and NY breds. Sat could be as good as any card they\'ve ever had up there.
