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!

Stable Name:Firestone Racing Number of Racehorses: ....let's go with a rough estimate of around 40 XD HOTY Points Earned: Likely MANY Why Stable Should Win: Firestone has been a force on the tracks this season, with a consistent presence across all HoTY races and the knowledge that her horses are ones to be reckoned with each time they step foot on the track. Notable among Firestone's runners this year are: Arctic Fox [10 HoTY pts. including Breeders Cup Marathon], Enrapture [6 HoTY pts. including Dubai Filly Cup], Enchanting Soldier [7 HoTY pts. including Breeders Cup F&M Turf], Final Velocity [9 HoTY pts. including 2 legs of the Turf Triple Sprinter Tiara], Foxy Passion [6 HoTY pts. including 3 legs of the Red Mile series], Ouro Lume [Super Oaks + 1 other leg of Fillies Distance Series], Peacebreaker [7 HoTY pts. including Duchess Stakes (TTT) and Anapolis Oaks (Fillies Turf Distance Series)], Socialite [3 legs of the Green Mile series], Borealis [7 HoTY pts. including Breeders Cup Juvenile Sprint], and likely others who I have simply missed in this simple list. It is easy to see that Firestone is indeed a force to be reckoned with and deserving of this award following this listing!!
Number of Racehorses: 0 (# of horses raced during Y18)
HOTY Points Earned: OPTIONAL; add up # of HOTY points stable has earned this season (allowed to PM owner and ask)
Why Stable Should Win: You don't have to look far in the impressive SoPS roster to find strong HoTY horses. Black Thriller (8 HoTY wins this season); Arsenia (5 HoTY wins, including BC Juvenile Fillies' Turf); Odin (9 HoTY wins, Canadian Triple Crown champion); Hyperion (7 HoTY wins, including 2 legs of the Turf Triple Crown); Kallisto (5 HoTY wins, including a leg of the triple Tiara) are just a few of the many horses to run in this stable's colors this season. This really is a stable to reckon with, and deserves recognition for their continued successes.
Stable Name:Crimson Haven Racing Number of Racehorses: ~25 HOTY Points Earned: OPTIONAL; add up # of HOTY points stable has earned this season (allowed to PM owner and ask) Why Stable Should Win: CHR is a smaller stable but fought hard among the big contenders for some great success, getting some juveniles to grade two O.O Alethea, Mournful Malister, Bellona, Rough Diamond Monarch's Journey, Vibe, and more.
Stable Name:Valkyrie Stud Number of Racehorses: A LOT HOTY Points Earned: A LOT Why Stable Should Win: Valkyrie Stud has not gone unnoticed this season with their horses and have proved that they deserve to be in the running for Stable of the Year. With top-quality equine partners such as Earthly Witch (a whopping 12 HOTY wins alone this season, incl. Woodbine Oaks, Wonder Where Stakes, Breeder's Cup Distaff), Toss Up (10 HOTY wins, incl. Vosburgh Stakes, Damascus Stakes, Breeder's Cup Sprint), Uno Momento (4 HOTY wins, incl. Dubai World Championship, Spring & Summer Dawn Treader Cup), Luminous Wave (9 HOTY wins, incl. Quebec Stakes*, Sis City Stakes, Breeder's Cup F&M Sprint), Roses Rampant (9 HOTY wins, incl. A Raving Beauty Handicap, Melbourne Cup, Champion Stakes), The Good Fight (8 HOTY wins, incl. 2 wins in the TSC), and many more that you guys can stalk on their website. Valkyrie Stud has been able to turn around horses that have had a rocky start into something pretty special in one season, so she deserves this award!
