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
† Sugar is usually calm and quiet but once in awhile she'll burst out of her spell and go nuts. She is good looking, and just has a look in her eye that makes you stop and wonder. She is not a horse that gets worked up for no reason and always finds amusement in everything. Everything is like a challenge for her that she must overcome. She is very ambitious and intelligent with a remarkable speed that will make you stop and stare.† Sugar was bought by Kaylin from Mythical Stables at a Thoroughbred clear out sale on GHF. Almost right away Sugar was seen on the track tearing apart the field and claiming an encouragement award for Y5. Suddenly Kirsten was approached by the owner of Mythical Stables and was asked to take in Dash of Sugar. It was of course an offer that Kirsten could not refuse. There were not many filly sprinters out there, it was exactly the horse that Akita Rose Stables needed. It was not very long at all before Sugar was out racing under ARS colors with Melanie on board.
And race she did. She absolutely tore up the track in all the sprints we could put her in. As a four year old she won the last two races on the Sprinter Series and won the Breeder's Cup Filly & Mare Sprint for the second year in a row.
In her fifth year she was even better! She won four major sprint races including the last two races in the Sprinter series again (for the second time in a row) and the Breeder's Cup Turf Sprint. It was a great way to end the gray mare's racing career. She was named Best Sprinter, Best Grade One and Best Older Mare for that year. She is obviously recognized as one of the best sprinters out there. She will now be starting her career as a broodmare and we hope to gain some more champions from her blood.
Her Achievements.
