    Adelaide Wolff en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Otto_Kahn Based on the construction of the stands, we should be able to find which animal show this is, based on the others in the group.

    The stepped observation boxes at the Piping Rock Country Club, Locust Valley, Long Island.
  • Richard Norton said:
    I agree that it is Long Branch. Good detective work.
  • Wystan said:
    Richard, I was wrong about the Long Branch ID. This is Piping Rock Country Club in Locust Valley, Long Island. Another shot from Piping Rock:

Mrs. Vanderpoel, Mrs. Fred D. Johnson, and Mrs. C.K.G. Billings (LOC)

  • pennylrichardsca (now at ipernity) said:
    The woman on the left is perhaps Mrs. William Halsted Vander Poel, the former Gretchen Billings, daughter of CKG Billings (chairman of Union Carbide). CKG Billings and Frederick Johnson (apparently the husbands of the other two women) together bought some English thoroughbred horses to raise for raising in 1915.
  • Wystan said:
    C. K. G. Billings and Fred Johnson were partners in the ownership of race horses, including "Omar Khayyam," winner of the 1917 Kentucky Derby. This photo appears to have been taken at the stepped observation boxes of the Piping Rock Country Club, in Locust Valley, Long Island, on July 10, 1913. Here is the same scene, same day, shifted to the right:
