Two full rounds of timed event competition are complete, along with a long round in the rough stock at the American Rodeo East Regional finals.
The final roster is set for who will be competing for the chance to move on to the next step - the semi-finals competition.
In this round on Saturday evening, competitors will need to end up in the top five in order to punch their ticket to the next step in the journey towards $1 million.
See who is competing.
This should be a battle right down to the last horse. There are former World Champions in this list who will be eligible for the million dollar prize should they go all the way.
Once again, this roughstock event will showcase some of the best in the world. There will not be a shortage of talent when the chute gates crack every single time in the performance.
Only seven cowboys earned the right to compete in the performance after the long round in the bull riding.
Just a quick overview of the paired teams here and it is easy to see that this should be a gun slinging contest to earn a top five position. These guys can rope and it will be fast.
There are some very familiar faces here with former NFR qualifiers and some young guns ready to take the veteran’s money.
Once again, a tough set here. NFR qualifiers and even a familiar name in the tie-down roping can be found here.
From World Champions to multiple time NFR qualifiers, this is going to be a fast and furious set of ladies roping. Get your drink before this starts because you won’t want to miss it.
Quite a set of young guns fill the lineup here. There is plenty of experience versus newcomers to make for a fast round if the calves play the game.
Only the top five in each event will get the chance to move on. The rest will have to wait until next year, or go to another regional finals if they have qualified. It’s one go, one chance, one million dollars on the line.
