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
Summer Lease Drawing Event I hope everyone's horses are all settled in back home once more, and now we've had a little break, it's time to check out a lease for the summer! Got a few fidgety slumpers who need a new trainer for a while? Here is an opportunity for you. This lease drawing will be a little different than the first one, so double check the new stuff. This is a nice chance for our newcomers to pick up something to help get them going as well!
Figure out which horses you want to lease out, and PM them to me only, do not post in this thread as you did the first time. There is no limit to how many horses you can put in to be leased, please let me know their age and preferences with their names so I can quickly assort them (such as Triton 3YO 9-12 Turf). Next to each lease, put down what the reward is for the lease term. Such as a BR to that horse, or another horse, or a rare item perhaps (you must own the item if you want to give it). Get creative if you'd like, by offering to do a workout or a set of graphics, or whatever else you think the lease is worth for that horse.
You do not have to take on leases to enter leases, and you do not have to enter leases in order to take on leases.
If you wish to take on one or more leases, PM me the age and general preferences of what you would be willing to take on. For example: 2 juveniles, one dirt router and one turf sprinter. If there are any other conditions, such as gender or grade, please list them there.
I will randomize and do a full surprise list of leases before June week 1 begins to give a little time to get pages set up. This lease runs from June Week One through September Week Four.
I cannot guarantee that every horse put up for lease will find a home, but I will put up leftovers if there are any for anyone to snag if they have interest.
The Draw! Here are the June W1-September W4 leases! Good luck to all, I have listed the leases that did not find a home at the bottom, anyone is welcome to take someone on if they’d like!
Italian Fury from Lex, a G4 8-11 dual filly. Although she hasn’t really run on turf, her parentage is definitely able to do it, she might really take off trying turf with you. She has some good back class, she might enjoy the change. Lex didn’t specify but I assume your remuneration is a BR to her.
Pendragon from moi, a 4YO G3 7-10 turf stallion. He’s currently entered at TW for May W4 and June W1. I figure you would probably like a BR to him XD
Sweet On You from Cruisey, a 5-8 dual 6YO mare who will retire at the conclusion of racing with you. (I know you asked for dirt and she is running mostly turf now but she has a lot of dirt experience, I don’t think switching up would make a difference.) Your remuneration is a BR to her.
.......................
@deaindividia
Saylor Moon from Lex! She is a 7-10 3yo turf filly, I assume a BR reserve to her is your remuneration, Lex didn't specify. (There were no 2yos entered this round of leasing!)
.......................
STILL AVAILABLE FOR LEASE
Pardon My French a 6YO G2 9-12 dirt stallion, owned by Sunfrost, I assume a BR for the lease.
Ashkenaz a 3YO G4 9-12 dirt colt, owned by Sunfrost, I assume a BR for the lease.
Ice Fiend a 5YO G1 9-12 turf stallion owned by Cruisey. For leasing a BR to him OR a custom foal kit with a surface supreme.
Golden Truth a 4YO G3 6-11 turf mare owned by Harry. Reward 1 BR to her a 1 BR to an equivalent stallion OR 1 BR to 2 equivalent stallions.
So Far Afar a 4YO G3 8-11 dual mare owned by Harry. Reward 1 BR to her a 1 BR to an equivalent stallion OR 1 BR to 2 equivalent stallions.
Chasing Treason a 3YO 6-9 dirt G4 colt owned by Lex. I assume a BR to him for the lease.

Hi Isakins! Thanks for running this! Unfortunately, since neither of mine got drawn into the lease pool (and I know it's random, don't worry), I won't be able to take on leases myself. I can't add if I'm not taking away xD So I'd like to withdraw my participation from this round and hope for better luck in the autumn one! And I've already messaged Harry letting him know, so no worries on that front.
