So I control Brago, King Eternal and Grasp of Fate, which has removed my own Gilded Drake from my opponent's side of the board after having previously exchanged control of it for one of his creatures.
I attack, choose flicker targets, Brago's trigger resolves, flickering my Grasp from play. Am I then able to choose the order in which I put Grasp's ETB trigger and Drake's ETB on the stack? No player receives priority while Brago's trigger is resolving, or when Grasp leaves play, right? So I can choose to resolve Drake's trigger first (exchanging control of it for an opponent's creature), and then exile Drake when the Grasp trigger resolves next, and continue to do this every turn by flickering Grasp with Brago triggers, am I right?
Thanks in advance to everyone who responds with a clarification!

This won't work. When Brago's ability resolves, you exile Grasp of Fate, thus bringing Gilded Drake back to the battlefield under your control, since you own Gilded Drake (C.R. 610.3c, 610.3), and then you return Grasp of Fate to the battlefield under its owner's control. After the ability resolves, the triggered abilities from Gilded Drake and Grasp of Fate will have triggered and will now go on the stack (C.R. 117.3b, 117.5). No matter what order you put the abilities on the stack, however (assuming you own Grasp of Fate as well) (C.R. 603.3b, 113.8), you can target only nonland permanents controlled by opponents with Grasp of Fate's ability at that moment (C.R. 603.3d, 601.2c); you can't target Gilded Drake this way, since you still control it. By the way, you are correct that players don't get priority while Brago's ability is resolving (C.R. 117.2e).
EDIT (Mar. 26): Edited second sentence.
EDIT (May 12): Corrected previous edit note.
EDIT (Mar. 6, 2020): Edited, including because some rules were renumbered with Core Set 2020.
EDIT (Jul. 2, 2020): One rule was renumbered with Core Set 2021.
For Gilded Drake to get into your opponent's control, its ability has to resolve first. Grasp and Drake trigger during the resolution of Brago's ability*. The target for Grasp of Fate's ability is chosen as you put it onto the Stack, which is roughly the same time Drake's ability goes onto the Stack, and definitely long before that ability resolves.
*From this rule describing Grasp of Fate:
610.3. Some one-shot effects cause an object to change zones “until” a specified event occurs. A second one-shot effect is created immediately after the specified event. This second one-shot effect returns the object to its previous zone.

Yes, you choose the order in which those go on the stack.
603.3b If multiple abilities have triggered since the last time a player received priority, each player,
in APNAP order, puts triggered abilities he or she controls on the stack in any order he or she
chooses. (See rule 101.4.) Then the game once again checks for and resolves state-based actions
until none are performed, then abilities that triggered during this process go on the stack. This
process repeats until no new state-based actions are performed and no abilities trigger. Then the
appropriate player gets priority.
and then exile Drake when the Grasp trigger resolves next,
No. You chose the "target nonland permanent that player controls" while you were putting the Grasp of Fate trigger on the stack. At that time, the Gilded Drake was still under your control.

Why bother with mere rulings when so many answers can be found in the Rules?
You are only partly right.
While you control both the Grasp of Fate and Gilded Drake triggers, so can chose what order they go on the stack, you can't exile the Drake with the Grasp this second time.
Since you have to choose legal targets for the the Grasp of Fate trigger when you put it onto the stack. At this time the Drake is still under your control, and Grasp can only target nonland permanent controled by your opponent. And no matter how badly you play, you are not your opponent.

Hope that helps.
Feeling a little embarrassed that it was an oversight on the targeting that I missed here. In any case, thanks for clearing things up
