Races close on Mondays at 9PM EST! Our Next Sale Begins: January Y22.
02/05/23 We're almost ready to kick off the New Year here at Final Furlong! The New Years Sale is still OPEN for bids - lots of ponies needing homes! As well, we're hoping to close January Week One races by MONDAY, FEBRUARY 6. However, if we need to extend closing date so more people can get entered, just let us know in the Discord. In addition to getting your pages ready, don't forget to use your bonus points if you'd like!
01/29/23 Congratulations to KENREN for winning the Y21 Breeders' Cup Betting Contest! You've won a breeding reserve to FIFTY DREAMS (Firestone Stud) and 2x 2 furlong extensions + 5 bonus horse points! Lolly finished 2nd, and Cruisey finished 3rd.
12/08/22 The Breeder's Cup Betting Contest will make a return for Y21!!! It'll be a little bit different because of the new points system, but get ready for some end of year fun 😄
11/21/22 Entries for the New Year Sale are now open! We know it seems a bit early, but with life things we're going to need time to make sure things are right lol. Please follow the link here: https://final-furlong.proboards.com/thread/2304/y22-new-year-sale
08/20/22 Judging has been the basis for issues for a long time - taking too long, drama regarding results, bias, etc. Kenren has attempted to put a points system together that keeps the spirit of our system while streamlining and standardizing the process. It's a lot to take in, but once you get in the swing of it, preparing pages with these points takes way less time than doing a layout change lol! If you have any questions, please post them in the judging-help channel on Discord for now. If anyone needs help with anything, please let an admin know! We would like to give everyone one week to get things settled, and then we would like to run July Wk 2 using this system closing 8/27/22 (or earlier if everyone is ready). If it works out, we would like to run two game weeks per RL week to get things moving! Thank you all so much for being her!e
07/27/22 To start July off fresh, we've been playing around with a new theme for Final Furlong! Make sure to check out 'Sonorous' under your profile ❤️ Feel free to use whatever theme works best for yourself. We can't wait to get back to racing!
07/21/22 it's official! We're back! It looks like June Wk 4 was almost fully judged, so make sure you get that updated if you hadn't! We will plan to close the next week (July Wk 1) on Thursday, August 4th. This close day may change, but it's not a bad place to start! For now we'll be doing one game week per RL week to get back into things. Please remember that starting the second half of the year, 3yos can compete against older horses without automatic lower placements.
As an aside, because this is fairly sudden after a whole year, we will not be allowing reclaims on horses for members not currently active for a few months. We will readdress this going forward if needed. Thank you all for understanding!
07/08/22 GO answer the poll ❤️ https://final-furlong.proboards.com/thread/2232/ff-restart-poll
Dazzling Dame was notorious for her mean behavior while on the track, but the fine daughter of Jessie James and Ebony Gold Lady sure knew how to use it to her advantage. The powerhouse twin of Infinite Warcry erupted from his shadows quite suddenly in Year Twelve. Going from a grade five racehorse to the winner of the Y12 Just A Game was quite a feat. Her onslaught in the racing world continued in Year Thirteen when she took down the following stakes races: Doncaster Cup, Full Moon Derby, the Just A Game a second time, the Flower Bowl, Beverly D Handicap and her biggest victory, the career capping Breeders' Cup Turf Marathon. As a result, her connections were awarded with training the Y13 Stayer Mare Of The Year following her big season.
Her triumphs on the track were impressive to say the least and she followed her terrific career up with aplomb in producing her first colt, Eternally Smoldering. The son of DW Flamekissed was bred by Battle Brook Stable and given to then North Diamond Manor. The colt became a 24 time winner, winning races such as the Breeders' Cup Juvenile Turf, the Kentucky Open, the Universal Cup, the World Colt Cup, the King George XV Cup, Doncaster Cup, The Wire Finish Cup and an electrifying win in the Breeders' Cup Turf. Eternally Smoldering was named to the Hall Of Fame at the conclusion of his career.
Dazzling Dame has had three other foals to date, all fillies and all of whom are still proving themselves on the racetrack. Battle Brook Stable has been noticeably shrinking their broodmare band in preparation for the new wave of mares expected to join the ranks. Dazzling Dame will take up ranks in a pensioned band that already includes the likes of Hall Of Fame mare El Sol del Mar, HOF producer Royal Assault, and blue hens Ebony Gold Lady and Finale Slew.
