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

SOPS Prize Draw!!
Welcome to the SOPS Prize Draw in celebration of finally finishing grad school! I have some awesome prizes up for grabs and hope you're all excited to participate
The Rules 1. The numbers in the prize draw range from 1-20. Prizes 1-10 are item prizes; prizes 11-20 are foal prizes. 2. To enter the prize draw, pick a number in the indicated range. You may have 2 item prizes or 1 foal prize, so either reply with two numbers between 1-10 or one number between 11-20. 3. No repeat numbers! Once a prize is picked, it's gone. 4. You can't trade in your prize. You can, however, swap your prize with someone else, as long as you post in this thread saying you've done that. 5. If you win a custom foal, I will likely not be open to swapping out one of the parents for a different horse. You are, however, free to play around with the distance preferences, as applicable and based on the parentage.
The Prizes 1. Ripleykins 2. Harry 3. Dea 4. Dea 5. 6. 7. Harry 8. 9. 10. Ripleykins 11. 12. 13. CC 14. Kenny 15. Isakins 16. Cruisey 17. Free 18. 19. 20.

KingHarry: Congratulations, you have received 1 Rerouter, 1 Pretty Color Certificate, and 1 Custom Foal Kit!
creativecause, Prize #13 is...an SOPS-bred dirt miler foal! You are now the proud owner of a foal (your choice of gender) born in either Y21/22/23 (pick one!) by Sweet Dreams and out of Animatia. The foal will likely be a 7-10 type and DEFINITELY needs to have 8F included in the furlong range you pick for him/her. Let me know which year you want to confirm this prize!
Kenren, Prize #14 is the Flexible Prize! You may have one reserve to the SOPS mare of your choice (this includes mares who I may have pensioned recently as well as those who are still racing). Let me know which mare to confirm the prize!
Isabelle, Prize #15 is your future CTC/CTT horse! You are now the proud owner of a colt/filly born in Y21/Y22/Y23 (pick a year!) by Natural Selection and out of Melusine. The horse will be born dual with a definitive 9-12 distance range, given the parentage. To confirm, let me know for which year you'd like the foal born.
Cruisey, Prize 16 is your own SOPS-bred turf sprinter!! This foal can be born Y21/22/24 (you pick) and is by Ruling Restraint and out of Amaris. Your colt/filly will love turf and will likely have a distance range of either 5-8 or 6-9 furlongs, though I can see the horse being able to get 10 furlongs as well. Confirm the year to confirm the prize!
free, Prize 17 is your own SOPS-bred dirt router! Your colt/filly can be born Y22/23/24 (you pick) and is by Fleet Street and out of Adrasteia. This foal will definitively prefer dirt, but will run either 8-11 or 9-12 furlongs for its range. Said foal may be able to get 7F, but I don't see it as too likely given the parentage. Once you confirm the year, the foal will be yours!
After 48 hours, I may allow everybody to pick another number - stay tuned!
I'll go with Y24, thank you Frostykins <3 Since I have a Y22 SOPS lined sprinter already planned ;) I'm excited for this foal's sibling I already have too heheh
