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

Name: Amarillo By Morning Link To Page:valkyriestud.weebly.com/amarillo-by-morning.html Sire: Amarillo Sky Dam: Bellefire Notable Siblings Through Sire: None Notable Siblings Through Dam: None Pedigree Comments: Mora is perhaps an odd entry, as neither of her parents have foals that have run. However, both of those parents have such incredible producing pedigrees that she can't be overlooked - both parents are likely to throw some incredible foals, if the trend holds!
Amarillo Sky is, of course, by Augusto. Augusto needs no introduction, but I would like to highlight the miler propensity of some of his foals and, more importantly, their ability to produce horses that run well at that distance. Bucephalus ran 7-10, and produced HOTY Shenanigans (who won a number of miler HOTY races her 3yo year in particular) and Abastor (who was better known for longer distances but did win well at a mile). His twin Requiem produced Mournful Passion (a notable miler) and HoF Deadly Desires (winner of the Breeders' Cup Mile). While others were capable of running this distance, these were the most prevalent of them.
Amarillo By Morning's dam, Bellefire, came from her own incredible sire line. BHoF War Admiral produced both horses that won at eight furlongs and horses that produced horses that ran at eight furlongs. Admirable produced Night Visions, a mile HOTY winner. Warlock produced HoF Axis Mundae, who won at a high level over eight furlongs. Atalanta produced very strong miler Breaking Point, who excels in the Green Mile series and has taken a number of other notable miler races at three.
Therefore, the filly may not have the most proven pedigree, but both of her parents are the siblings of solid producers - not even including those that produced HoF horses that ran out of these distance parameters!
Name: Chelsea's Smile Link To Page:here Sire:Frozen Motion (Spitz x Hira-Kiri) Dam:Terror Smile Notable Siblings Through Sire:Amaris, Kismet, Valaska Notable Siblings Through Dam: Moonstorm, Takeover Bid Pedigree Comments: Frozen Motion is bred from a somewhat rare line, Spitz x Hira-Kiri. He has won multiple awards, including Y10 GHF January Horse of the Month, Y12 TW Turf Male of the Year, Y12 TW Three Year Old Male of The Year, Y13 Stallion To Watch, and has notched wins in the Belmont Turf Classic*, Breeders' Cup Turf*, TW Finish Cup Turf Mile*, TW Arlington Million Stakes*, etc. His daughters include Amaris, a foal out of champion Axis Mundae who won eight races as a juvenile, 7 of those being HOTY races. She's already Grade One with her best wins coming from 6-8f range. Kismet is a daughter of Hall of Fame mare Deadly Desires. At three, she has become a grade two runner and is on the brink of G1. Valaska is a grade three three year old for Battle Brook Stable.
Terror Smile didn't have the most extensive race record, however, is a very popular broodmare with many foals being planned for future years. Her current foal Moonstorm is currently a grade three runner for Firestone Racing and has shown us she is ready to break into HOTY company at the mile range. Takeover Bid is currently a grade five for Intrepid Racing.
Name: Flitcraft Link To Page:Clicky Sire:Immortal Flight (The Immortal x Flight Of Fancy) Dam:Cute Tee Notable Siblings Through Sire: The Dark Knight, Sweet Talker (just beginning careers) Notable Siblings Through Dam:Cute Italian Pedigree Comments: Immortal Flight was a grade one winner out of The Immortal, who also sired Trinity and FSC Stormin' Glory. Flight of Fancy is dam to Comeuppance, Top Admiral, Devil's Flair, Casualty of War, In Front, and Smashdashing, all who had great racing careers and are passing on talent to foals now. Cute Tee foaled Cute Italian, who foaled legendary Italian Ice and Baciami.
