For the fight go to the casino at the harness track, call them first to make sure there isn't a reservation requirement (518) 584-2110
Sperrys(great drinks) and Hamlet and Ghost(named one of the best cocktail bars in Saratoga) are two nice bars for drinking on Caroline Street. You didn't mention eating but if you really want a home cooked meal and can get a reservation or wait the one hour, the Olde Bryan Inn on Maple Avenue(right on the corner of the Hilton Hotel property) is a great find. It is busy year round and the prices aren't geared towards the rich and famous. Enjoy one of the truly great host cities for thoroughbred racing in the world.

Good vittles at Druthers too. Also for out of the way eats Henry St taproom- right near the Parting Glass- is good. I have a bunch of friends that love Pennells never been there. Benefit of Pennells is that you could conceivably walk from track to Horsehoe to Pennells then get a cab back to Longfellows for a nightcap in their nice bar. But I'd get downtown at least for a bit on Fri especially if you aren't going there Saturday
