Gulfstream to host Eclipse Awards ceremony through 2016

The Eclipse Awards ceremony will continue to be held at Gulfstream Park in Hallandale Beach, Fla., through 2016 under a two-year renewal deal the track reached with the ceremony’s organizers, the National Thoroughbred Racing Association announced Wednesday.

The deal makes Gulfstream the host of the ceremony for four consecutive years from 2013-16. The ceremony, which includes the announcement of Horse of the Year, is annually held in late January.

The 2015 ceremony is scheduled for January 17. It will be held in Gulfstream’s Sport of Kings Theater.
