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

Victoria Derby - G3 7F T win Spirit of Liberty place Maleficent show The Oddity fourth Spirit of the Angel
Spirit of the Angel has a ton of backclass, but unfortunately faced three very conditioned foes today that she was unable to take down. With more racing, she'll get back to her winning ways and show her class again - I have no doubt of it. Spirit of Liberty powered her way to a victory today over Maleficent and The Oddity, both of whom have been incredibly successful this season. Good field of mares.
Oh these two year olds!!! Pretty much all of them were front runners. Alot of speed throughout the race. The pace was fast and painless. They are all strong competitors. The placings were switched various times.
Ambition: The first one out of the gate for the early lead, had his hands full with Ambush and Hemingway on his tail. He is a very strong breaker from the gate. He will start pulling some wins in for you Isa. He had some good competition in this race. Try some smaller fields to build his confidence up a bit.
Ambush: Ripley, this is a strong colt with a bright future ahead of him. He ran on with Ambition and seemed to have his own race coming to him. He got caught up in the closers and got caught up close to the wire. This was an excellent run for him. He will grow into a lovely competitor.
Simply Stated: This colt was waiting for the right moment to bite. He just couldn't quite get to the leaders towards the end. A trip from the gate was more than likely the culprit. He was pressing on the leaders early.
Wrathful Curse: This colt just edged Simply Stated out for third. He has amazing closing speed. He was at the rear of the pack early on. His stretch run is built to perfection. He seems quite comfortable at the HOTY level.
Hemingway: This beautiful colt battled with the leaders all throughout the race. He is incredible Lolly! I don't think there is nothing stopping him right now, well except for Winter lol. Keep him at HOTY level. He will continue to do wonders.
Winter: Yes, let the lone filly beat out all the boys. Her experience is rising. She held back behind the leaders and let the front runners lash it out early. As soon as her rider flashed the whip, this little lady was off like a freight train. She flashed by the field in a strong demeanor. Very competitive filly with a strong finish to boot.
