The 2008 Eclipse Awards will be presented on January 26 in Miami Beach, returning the ceremony to South Florida for the first time since ‘04.

The event has been held at the Beverly Wilshire Hotel in Beverly Hills, California, the last four years.

“The Eclipse Awards return to Florida after a strong, four-year run in Southern California,” said Keith Chamblin, senior vice president of the National Thoroughbred Racing Association. “The newly remodeled Fontainebleau Miami Beach will be a memorable venue at which to celebrate our 2008 Eclipse Champions.”

The NTRA, Daily Racing Form, and National Turf Writers Association present the Eclipse Awards, which will head back to Beverly Hills in 2010.
