Default Seeking advice for Keeneland trip

I am heading to Keeneland on Friday Oct 3 and attending the races Friday, Saturday, and Sunday(bankroll permitting). This will be my second visit, but my first was as part of a large charter group out of Bowling Green, KY. in 2002. Up and Back same day, Dropped off, wander around, Drink too much, gamble, back on the charter and home by 9. I will be driving over from Va. early Friday with 2 other friends. They have never been at all. I have the hotels all booked, so I am good there.

I am asking for advice about Parking, Seating, Dining, etc. I know Saturday is Sold Out on basically all Reserved Seating and all of the High Roller locales unless I hit StubHub. I am looking at the "Limestone Café" Seating option for Saturday. Table is $160 for 4 people and there is a lunch served. KEE website says the Cafe is at "Sales Pavilion just down the hill". Can you see the track or is this just a Restaurant with Tellers and Selfies on the property? Would like to get to the rail for a race or two so I don't know if this is a viable seating option. Don't want an OTB experience 500 yards from this track. Anyone know?

We would probably be OK with General Admission on Saturday, but would like suggestions. Any advice welcome and Thanks.
