The $3.2 million Built Ford Tough World Finals presented by Wrangler invades Las Vegas, Nev. for two expanded weekends of action, Oct. 28-30 at the Mandalay Bay Events Center and Nov. 3-6 from the Thomas & Mack Center. Current world standings leader Justin McBride (Elk City, Okla.) entered the World Finals with a 956.5 point lead which he has extended to 1,450.75 points over Guilherme Marchi (Leme, Sao Paulo, Brazil). McBride is riding with a vengeance and in control of the World Finals event title with a total on three bulls of 269.5 points. McBride, who battled adversity in Las Vegas in 2004 with a broken ankle and again in 2003 with a punctured lung and broken ribs, is experiencing his first healthy World Finals.

Dominating the field with an electrifying 91.75 point score was Allan Moraes (Watauga, Texas) who countered moves with Western Rodeo's Red One for the $20,000 go round win. Moraes who filled in as an alternate on the contestant roster is one member of the three man band of brothers who are all competing for the second consecutive year at the World Finals. They are the only trio of brothers in PBR history to have ever accomplished such a feat.

Two time PBR World Champion Adriano Moraes (Sao Paulo, Brazil) served as interpreter for his younger brother who stated "Coming to the World Finals as an alternate I am not set to have a seated position for the 2006 season so there is pressure to perform in order to be on the tour next year." Of his match up against Western Rodeo's Red One Moraes added "It was a good ride and I felt that I made the necessary moves at the right moment." The Moraes brothers focus their training program around time in the gym as well as the right combination of physical and spiritual preparation.

Known for his consistency throughout the regular season Marchi faced K&K Ranch and Kevin Loudamy's Predator in round three, however was awarded the option of a reride due to the bull's lackluster performance. Marchi then challenged Jeopardy owned by 1996 PBR World Champion Owen Washburn and managed 87.5 points for a total on two bulls in the aggregate of 175.25 points, placing him fifth. Marchi came up short against Taylor Made Bucking Bulls' Pandora's Box in round two giving McBride a crucial window of opportunity of which he took full advantage.

Cory McFadden (Coleman, Texas) followed up his round two 93 point marking on D&H Cattle Company and Teague Bucking Bulls' Mossy Oak Mudslinger with 91.5 points aboard Western Rodeo's Wild One in round three. In so doing McFadden holds down second behind McBride in the World Finals event aggregate with a total on two of 184.5 points. The seemingly indestructible current world standings leader and first go round winner McBride posted an 86.75 point score aboard Stookesbury, Owen and Thorsell's FreightLiner in round three. Freightliner has been covered once in 11 BFTS outs by and his average buck off time is 4.56 seconds.

The maximum number of Built Ford Tough Series (BFTS) points available during the World Finals is 6,500, meaning that any of the top 15 contestants listed in the current BFTS point standings are conceivably contenders for the world title. The World Finals event average title is worth 2,500 points alone.

The Dickies National Bullfighting Championship took place at the conclusion of each of the first three go rounds, Oct. 28-30. Sam Gress (Hutchison, Kan.) and Wacey Munsell (Ulysses, Kan.) dominated the six-man field of the 70-second freestyle American bullfighting, each earning $6,000 for their efforts.
