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
Despicable Mary Stakes- G4+ - 11f - T - 3yo WIN. In My Remains PLACE. Ice Fiend SHOW. Chetory (Nose) Fourth. Celestial Sword
The bottom three were on a pretty level playing field for me, and I really had to be picky to separate them. Ice Fiend shows a lot of favourability towards 11F and has the most HOTY experience out of the bottom trio. I REALLY disliked putting Celestial Sword out of the money; I can cearly see he's finding his feet as a 3yo and is getting considerably stronger. But I also see Chetory having a lot of potential, she's got the HOTY experience there and with consistent racing she is also ready to shine this year. I'd have been quite happy if all of these guys could win!

Missile Belle Maiden - M - 9f - D - 2yo win Gallantry place Tainted Love show Arrestive fourth Inner Storm fifth Adalia sixth Jersey Glory
GAH. Gorgeous horses. I really loved how every horse had their own set of quirks and personality. I really liked Gallantry for the win here. The others are barely behind. First-time maiden races are so tough to judge. All of these horses have tons of potential.
Lalun Maiden - M - 9f - T - 2yo FIRST Truth Teller SECOND Call To Arms THIRD Mudslide FOURTH Usotsuki FIFTH Fallen Angel
First race for all with no front runner. I got the sense from these guys that the top two would be the most level headed for a first run, with happier feelings running where they'd like. I placed the bottom three from a mixture of personality and race placement, as with all of these juvi races they're pretty even but they had to place out somewhere.
SAN JUAN CAPISTRANO STAKES* - G2+ - 9f - T - 4yo+ F/M WIN Southern Peach Place Wild Tide Show Shatter 4th Roses Rampant (nose) 5th Fantasy Island
There were a lot of closers in this race and this made it hard to navigate all that traffic when it came to the final charges for home, but Southern Peach's head was totally in the game of racing, having her start already for this year to nose out Wild Tide, who was really in command of this race. Shatter was able to explode free from the closing traffic to attempt a run in the final stretch, but it was too late to challenge the front two leaders. Roses Rampant and Fantasy Island we're each other's own demise, going back and forth with one another for the duration of the race. Both will benefit greatly from their first starts of the year and should flourish from here. All were beautiful horses.
