Keeneland Visit Advice

Hi! I’m taking my dad to Keeneland for his 60th birthday this Sunday. This will be our first time there, and while I’ve read plenty of past posts seeking advice, I’m still looking for more info on how I can make this the best outing possible. I got really good grandstand tickets at the finish line but also picked up a pair for the equestrian room as it seemed interesting. I’m only planning to keep one pair, and at this point, I’m at a loss for which to keep. My dad is indifferent, so my thought process is revolving around

  • Access to betting windows, food, beer, bathrooms, etc. How long do lines get on Sundays in the general concourses? I’m sure we’ll want to bet as many races as possible so it’d be great to be able to get bets in and back to our seats quickly
  • Track views - I’m sure the grandstand views will be awesome, but is it that big of an upgrade over GA?
  • Quality of amenities in the Equestrian Room - Is the food as good as what we can get at the general concessions?

TIA, and would greatly appreciate any other tips!
