In terms of the GA, it's a mess. People (myself included) line up about 4:45 outside the gates to run in at 6AM and grab a table in the backyard.
If you don't care about a table and still want a good GA seat, bring a lawn chair but still get there early when the gates open. Every other day of the meet, I'd day you'd be fine leaving the chair with a paper on it and coming back later in the day. But Travers day is for tourists and they don't always obey the usually Saratoga rules.
If you want a seat seat the after-market is the way to go. But it ain't cheap unless you get real lucky.
That's all i got.

Do the gates open at 6 or 7 am? I think the web site said 7 on Travers day.
Also what time do they open on the Friday. The site conflicts about that as well. Going to try to hit the museum as well.....any suggestions on whats the best time to do that? I land in Albany at 130 pm ish and would like to try to get there on that day but dont know if I'd be pushing it.
Thanks again.
