Description
Photograph of a panoramic view of Santa Anita Racetrack, 1947. Riders with horses are visible on a dirt track in the foreground; what appears to be a garden of flowers is visible behind them. A white fence divides the garden and a crowd of people. In the center area, more people can be seen either sitting on a grassy lawn or strolling along several floral gardens. Further to the back, a parking lot is visible covered by parked automobiles. Mountains and trees fill in the backdrop.
