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
Hi, it's Ender. I took a really long break (Really, really long, haha). I just took some time to be with my family and I guess I was gone longer than I wanted to be. Honestly, I've really missed it here. I've missed the community and I've missed seeing everybody elses' horses and my own. That said, I know a lot of my horses have probably been dispersed around the members and I'm sure everybody who took on the role of owner for my horses did a great job campaigning them . So, right now, it would really help to know who has my horses and if you can update me on them. I don't need to reclaim all of my horses, but it would really be nice to have my starter horses and maybe my favorite horses Constitution, Bellona, Alethea, and Mournful Malister. The rest of the horses I have I'm willing to let go and start over with new horses. I really want to get back into Final Furlong and work my way up again. Anyways, thank you so much and I'm so sorry I had taken such a long hiatus without any warning.

Hey Ender. Welcome back!! I hope you'll be able to readjust and jump right back into the swing of things. We're happy to have you back! (We were all definitely sad to see you go )
In terms of your horses, I believe I reclaimed and rehomed a few based on some buyback rights I had. It'd be up to their current owners to tell you if you can have them back, though, but I'm happy to tell you where they currently are.
Alethea - with KingHarry Ominous Truth - was with Holly, but Holly looks to be inactive again so on that side I give you permission to take him back in if you'd like (I just want the poor guy actively raced): link Rough Diamond - with CreativeCause City Slicker - I actually have him marked as Homeless in my records, which probably means I either missed something or he really is homeless XD
Ummmm I guess you can have Bellona back. Ragnarok ended up with somebody, Holly I think. S u N f r O s T ~ rehomed City Slicker with me, I renamed him Robin Hood, I want to keep him.
I have rehomed the horses I had reclaims on, unfortunately, and it will be up to their current owners if they want to give them back.
I had rehomed Thanos to @goliathus, however the horse still has not been entered or raced. I have since made the decision for him to be deleted. I made a tough decision for Mockingjay to be deleted, as it's August and Catching Fire has enough foals on the ground right now. If you would like a reserve to him, and you stay active, I will keep a foal for you. Primrose & Hot Flash are with creativecause. City Lights is with Kenren. Mournful Malister is with me, and I would like to keep him for the remainder of his 3yo season. As I co-own now with Kenren, if you stay active I will consider letting him go back to you for his 4yo season as you did race him really well up until your absence.

Welcome back!! I have Leviticus, Flash and Class, Corsair, Book Of Secrets, Winged Passion and Constitution. Plus the horses listed above as well. I bred most of them as apart of my Y15 crop back in the day and would like to keep them. However I do have a few I’d be willing to let go of if you would like to pm me and we can discuss that further .
Welcome back. I gave other members most of the horses I gave you. At the moment, most of them are doing really well with their owners so I'd like to keep them where they are. The following horses have been rehomed:
Rehomed: Rogue Prince Chetory Silvara Aphrodite's Ashes (I kept, gender-bendered and renamed Asperitas) Aphrodite's Chant
Saros (didn't realize you had this colt, but he was deleted)
I've got a couple of horses (City Lights [we found a conflict, he's been re-aged to 2], Wildcat King, The Raven [though he was a lease anyway], and Mournful Malister [at Cru's barn, co-owned]). The ones I'm racing will stay with me. If you stick around for awhile, I may re-evaluate the possibility of them going to you, but that'll just depend on what they're doing for me. Cru's got decision rights on Mournful Malister, so I'll defer to her on that. I believe you had Passionat God, and he's been rehomed.
S u N f r O s T ~ Thanks! I can take Ominous Truth back. It's nice to be back. I just have to be better at balancing life lol. Isabelle Thank you so much for Bellona! The rest sounds good. KingHarry Would it be possible for me to get Alethea back from you? I think I can purchase her back (I think I have money saved up from when I was gone). Cruisey I would love a reserve to Catching Fire. As for Mournful Malister, that sounds like a good deal. creativecause Would I at least be to able to have reserves to those horses? I totally understand if you don't want to do that though . ripley Okay! As long as the horses are doing good I'm fine with where they're at. Kenren! Thanks for updating me Kenren!
I've been really enjoying racing Alethea so I would like to keep her for the remainder of the season. Next season, PM me and we can discuss you possibly having her back.
(Also, money isn't a thing anymore. Read the latest update post )
Thanks Free! I'll get you a link as soon as possible. I'm working on a new site right now and it will hopefully have everything moved by this Thursday.
My new site is Here. If you want you can click the link and see if there are horses that should be on the site and horses who should not be.
I assumed the juveniles Royal Duchess, Palisades Princess, and Resistance weren't reclaimed or anything so I added them to the site. If that's not correct please let me know and I'll remove their pages.

EDIT: And I think Resistance was deleted by the breeders. I definitely was told a horse was deleted and removed one from No Reservation's progeny list, so at least I assume that was him. Cruisey can presumably shed some light on that.
Bellona's records should be up to date, she might have a week four entry from me at a track but other than that she wouldn't be entered elsewhere. Her return to you is conditional - she's already missed time this year, she needs to stay on the tracks. If you disappear and she misses several weeks in a row I'll be taking her back without waiting several months to see if you return. So stick around.
KingHarry & Ender, it was Resistance that was removed. However, I'd Classic Nutcase is still open that year and if KH has no problem with keeping the foal then I'd be open to re-adding him. Up to KH though!
Personally, considering what point of the year we're in, I'd rather he wasn't remade. I'm happy to let you have a No Reservations reserve for next year instead though!
