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
[attr="class,"bioentry"]This horse is everything her name implies and lives up to her nickname. She is as sweet as the day is long and has a fierce desire to please. It's this sweet dedication that she has that really sets her apart from others. She loves people in general, but the people who work with her directly, she shows the most attachment to. She may love people and interacts well with them and horses alike, but that doesn't mean she's a pushover.
When things aren't going well or she's having a hard time, she doesn't lash out or get physically aggressive, but neither will she cower. She can dig her heels in as hard as a mule and that stubbornness just has to be taken with a lot of time and patience. Fortunately for us, those moods are few and far between.
This gal handles crowds and excitement with an unflappable attitude. She may shift her weight a bit eagerly from one leg to another, but she's not the kind to wash out or become uncontrollable before a race. She is the picture of alertness, ears pricked, eyes bright and standing on top of her toes as she takes everything in.
She loads easily into the gates and doesn't seem to mind the confined spaces. She learned quickly to trust her rider and on the off chance that she's excited or unnerved, all it takes is a reassuring pat on her neck and sweet nothings whispered to her and she will settle right down.
As soon as the gates open Sweetie breaks pretty evenly. She's not the first off the block, but neither will she be left in the dust. She prefers to settle behind the pack and bide her time, waiting for her window and the front-runners to tire one another out, but if pressed, she has the versatility to get a little more skin in the game and move forward into a more present stalking position. Either way, Sweetie will do her part as soon as her rider sends her for home and it is a breathtaking thing to behold as she fights for home.
