Tonight’s Fort Worth Stock Show Rodeo finals will feature a long list of local and national stars, led by Trevor Brazile of Decatur, who is attempting to earn a record eighth world all-around title in the Professional Rodeo Cowboys Association.
Brazile could make a big early-season move toward reaching his goal by earning the bigger bucks at the Fort Worth rodeo in team roping and tie-down roping. Brazile and his partner, Patrick Smith of Lipan, have the lead in the team roping title race.
Brazile also was tied for second in the tie-down roping average as the rodeo concluded its 28th of 30 performances Saturday night at Will Rogers Memorial Coliseum.
The finals (7:30 p.m.) will feature the top 12 in each event, following the matinee show at 2 p.m.
Brazile enters the short round leading the world all-around race with $16,994. He conceivably could push his 2010 earnings to about $30,000 with exceptional final-round performances tonight. (read more)
