Clint Laye entered the Canadian Finals Rodeo third in the standings, but after a third-place finish in Round 1 and a win in Round 2, he now sits at the top.
Laye was marked 85.25 to get the win, which bested Dantan Bertsch who went 84.25.
Laye knew he had a good draw in Vold Rodeo’s True Grit and took full advantage.
“It was everything I had in the gas tank. That horse is old, he’s smart and was throwing everything he had at me tonight.”
Laye’s earnings are now up to over $51,500 on the season, giving him a lead of $3,500 over Orin Larsen, who won Round 1.
