AUSSIE AWESOME ON THE ALLEGHENY, TAKES OVER NO. 1: Australian Brady Fielder went 3-for-3 in
Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, last weekend to win his second event of the season and overtake No. 2 John Crimber for the No. 1 spot in the Unleash The Beast standings, making him the first cowboy other than Crimber to hold a lead in the 2025 gold buckle race.
Fielder topped Money Moves for 86.5 points in Round 1 before covering Chuck for 85 points in Round 2. Sporting an eight-out ride streak heading into the championship round, Fielder chose UTZ BesTex Smokestack as his final animal athlete opponent. The Aussie cowboy completed his flawless weekend with a bang, scoring an event-high 90.75 points to catapult into the lead.
In addition to winning the event and propelling him to the No. 1 spot in the Unleash The Beast standings, the ride also extended Fielder’s streak to nine and won him his third round of the season, tying him with No. 9 Keyshawn Whitehorse and No. 15 Jose Vitor Leme for the second-most round wins of the season. Currently, Crimber and No. 4 Dalton Kasel hold the lead with four round wins each. While Crimber and Leme are both sidelined due to injury, Fielder attempts to keep his ride streak alive against Vindicated in Round 1 on Friday, while Whitehorse takes on Triple Aught and Kasel shares a chute with T-Wrecks.
