During the COVID-19 pandemic, with the cancellation of a large portion of live horse racing, many fans have resorted to viral fads to pass the time.

Last week, it was posting "four horses that mean something to me" on social media. This week, it's videos.

The rule is simple--post a video relating to horse racing, with no description. Hundreds of videos have been posted to Facebook, Twitter, and other social media sites.

While nearly everyone would prefer more actual horse racing, these viral fads have helped to keep people engaged, and quite frankly, some of the videos are pretty cool.

Here is a small sample of some of the better videos posted online:
