Strathalbyn (SA) rider David Stacey won the two rounds of the saddle bronc ride at the 50th anniversary rodeo at Wilmington at the weekend and was first in the aggregate at the Australian Professional Rodeo Association event.
To cap a great weekend for his family, his brother Leslie was second in round 2 of saddle bronc and third overall.
There are almost 200 nominations for the Peterborough Rodeo, including 28 in the ladies barrel race.
The rodeo starts at 6pm at the Peterborough Rodeo Grounds on Saturday. (Feb 6)
Alice Springs rider Tom Willoughby split first in the bareback at Wilmington and will be back at Peterborough chasing more prize money in both bareback and the bull ride.
Kapunda cowboy Kevin Reynolds won the steer wrestling at Wilmington in a strong field and will be hard to beat this Saturday.
He has drawn the bull Down To Earth in the open bull ride and will be aiming for an eight-second scoring ride.
There are 21 nominations in the second-division bull ride which shows there are plenty of young men keen to compete in one of the most extreme events in Australian sport.
Action will be on at Peterborough in all eight APRA events.
