I'd be tempted to go back to the antique shop, see if the backing allows easy access to the photo without damaging anything, and if so, asking the owner if you could look at the back of the photo - maybe something's printed/inscribed there?
As far as the racecourse, looks like there's a ridgeline behind the track (making a Florida/Arlington somewhat unlikely), and a very specific topiary pattern for the bushes. That should help make it identifiable.
As far as not having a turf course - those are much later additions at a number of courses (e.g. Florida/Tampa Bay Downs)
Where is the antique shop? I'd also surmise that there's a greater probability of it being a track regionally close to the shop.
