With two performances set to take place in the tiny town of St. Paul, Oregon today, the first is sure to bring changes to leaderboard as some of the World’s top cowboys and cowgirls are on the daysheet.
BAREBACK RIDING
Leighton Berry is hunger to get back into the No. 1 spot in the World and a matchup with Sanke Pro Rodeo and Phenom Genetic’s Sozo just might get him that much closer. According to Stock Stats, this is the first time the two will go toe-to-toe but Sozo is an NFR bucking horse and Rocker Steiner rode him for 88.5 last season.
