I'm published an ABBI article this morning breaking down the bulls that will have the best chance to walk away with the $250,000 at this year's Classic Finals. I'll post a little preview below from now on, and that is below. Just click the link below the preview or in my signature to check out the rest of the story. Thanks again for everything. The first couple days have been a big-time success!
Keeping up with the best PBR riders and bulls is fun, but my favorite part is following the three and four-year-old ABBI Classic bulls. These animal athletes are the future of the sport, and they keep getting better every year. The PBR gave the Classic bulls two rounds at the Tulsa BFTS event a few weeks ago, and it’s clear they are starting to give these young guys more attention. Still, it’s a very underrated part of the sport. For those who haven’t kept up with this in the past, do yourself a favor and visit the ABBI website.
The top-40 ABBI Classic bulls will compete in Las Vegas, and the winner will receive $250,000. Even the bulls that finish inside the top 10 will walk away with plenty of prize money for their efforts. This year’s race has a clear favorite in Bushwacker, but any bull can have an off-trip out of nowhere. And one bad trip in Vegas will instantly take a bull out of the money. With a little over two months until the Finals, here is how I see this year’s race. If you have anything to add, please comment below or email me at: cody.thrasher@rantsports.com. Enjoy!
The Favorite
Bushwacker is at the top of the Classic standings, and his lead is nearly $20,000 over the second-place bull. He has won numerous events so far this season, and he has placed extremely high in a few others. Out of the entire class of young bulls, he has been the most consistent all season. Even his bad trips result in 43 or 44-point bull scores. If every bull has their best trip in Vegas, Bushwacker will come out on top. As long as this bull doesn’t hip himself or fall down, he will be the odds-on favorite to win $250,000. Either way, Julio Moreno has a present and future PBR Bull of the Year candidate.
