Can't be sure from the resolution of the film, but my group of friends used to stand up on the table right up against the fence as close as we could get to the turn. There is a group there in this video.
I have also looked for myself in these videos. There is somebody who looks like my father visible in the background of the finish line of the Harris Farms Handicap in the video I uploaded moments earlier today, but there is no way I will ever know for sure. I will pretend that it's definitely him celebrating and then giving me a high-five. His mannerisms definitely match my father's!
Thank you once again airforbes1 for posting another great memory of mine at my favorite former racetrack in Nor Cal.
