They had a green footbridge that crossed the grass so fans were not walking ON the turf courses. It was an era when not holding ANY grass races on a Saturday afternoon wouldn't ruffle any feathers. Grass racing has come a long way in the US since then.

Many Europeans would find that horses don't show their best on dirt.
