Photograph of the burial site of Lucky Baldwin's four American Derby-winning horses, Valante (1885), Silver Cloud (1886), Emperor of Norfolk (1888), and Rey El Santa Anita (1894) at the Baldwin Ranch, ca.1910.

There is a large bush growing near the left side of the monument, partially covering the left corner.
