If you’ve spent any time on social media this week, you’ve in all likelihood noticed a new hashtag making its way around the horse community. #NeverEclipsed is a social media campaign launched by the National Thoroughbred Racing Association to salute the versatile off-track Thoroughbred as the 49th Annual Eclipse Awards for Thoroughbred racing approach later this month.
You can participate in the #NeverEclipsed campaign, which stops taking submissions on January 17. Select submissions will be shown, highlight-reel style, during the awards ceremony at Gulfstream Park in Hallandale Beach, Florida. Note: Thanks to our readers for pointing out that posts on Facebook and Twitter using #NeverEclipsed will be used, and Instagram is not mentioned as an eligible platform for selection into the highlight reel.
We’ve seen plenty of eventers jumping on the wagon, so here is a round-up of a few of our favorite #NeverEclipsed posts. Don’t forget to add yours to the mix to promote the breed most loved by event riders the world over! Go OTTBS, and Go Eventing.
