About ten thoroughbreds and jockeys, round turn toward finish of a race at Santa Anita Park. San Gabriel Mountains loom up behind. One can tell that this is early years of the track because of the dust kicked up by horses. Later, track was completely excavated and new improved mixture was put in place.

Description
Arcadia's First Racetrack -- Known locally as "The Old Baldwin Racetrack," Santa Anita Park opened December 7, 1907 at the site of today's Santa Anita Golf Course. This racetrack represented the realization of Lucky Baldwin's greatest ambition. "I desire no other monument," said Baldwin when the first day's races at his new track had been run. "This is the greatest thing I have ever done, and I am satisfied." In 1909, horseracing was banned throughout the State. Santa Anita Park closed on April 17, 1909. In 1912, the grandstand burned.
