The National Thoroughbred Racing Association (NTRA) announced that it is asking fans and horsemen to submit their personal photos with Triple Crown winner Justify for inclusion in a video montage to be shown during the 48th Annual Eclipse Awards ceremony Jan. 24 at Gulfstream Park. Submissions can be made on Twitter by using the hashtag #JustifyandI or by tagging @NTRA or posting an image to the wall of the official NTRA page (Facebook.com/1NTRA).

“Justify has inherited the mantle from American Pharoah as Thoroughbred racing's greatest four-legged ambassador,” said Keith Chamblin, NTRA Chief Operating Officer. “His public and private appearances over the coming months will be highly anticipated and a celebration not only of his Triple Crown accomplishments but also of his immense popularity as one of America's newest sports heroes.”

Justify is scheduled to be paraded at Santa Anita Saturday, June 23.
