Can you build in a bit of leeway to accept alternative phraseology? I tried "It's no use crying over spilt milk", "The early bird catches the worm" and "There are lots of (or many) fish in the sea".
Tibi gratias.
I'm not sure about the translation for flogging a dead horse - doesn't "cecidit" mean "fell"? Maybe something more like "Equum mortuum noli verberare". Possibly.

There are plenty more fish in the sea
Nominated on this basis.
