Emily Miller-Beisel is making her return to the Wrangler NFR after first qualifying in 2019.

She will be riding into the Globe Life Field No. 12 in the world for barrel racing with a current earning of $42,580 dollars.

At the Wrangler NFR in 2019 she moved from seventh to third by placing in five out of ten rounds, including winning Rounds 1 and 4. Overall, 2019 was an amazing year for her. She won the most of any barrel racer over the 4th of July with an impressive total of $17,358 dollars.

Most of her 2019 earnings came while riding a horse named Chongo, who we will likely see at the NFR. However, she spent much of this year riding a horse named Beau, who finished second in the Purina Horse of the Year.

This year has also been a great year for her. She won $5,343 dollars at Deadwood, South Dakota’s Days of ’76 Rodeo, finished 2nd with $6,806 dollars at La Fiesta de los Vaqueros in Tucson, Arizona, and won $4,500 at the San Antonio Stock Show Rodeo.
