Fort Worth, Texas -- Rising to 17-9 ahead of their homestand at Dickies Arena on Sept. 26-28, the Texas Rattlers owned a perfect 3-0 weekend in Belmont Park, New York.

Braidy Fielder, a 25-year-old Australian native, improved his riding streak to seven bulls with a perfect 3-for-3 weekend in the Empire State. His streak dates back to the final day of PBR Teams: Anaheim earlier this month when he bested Cutting Edge Sugar Daddy for 83.75 points. Fielder sits second in the MVP Race, just one ride and 78.75 points behind first with 19 qualified rides over 23 outs.

 

 

Over the weekend, Texas defeated the No. 3 Arizona Ridge Riders (17-9), No. 6 Missouri Thunder (11-15), and No. 5 Carolina Cowboys (13-13) while remaining in fourth, tied in wins with Arizona while holding the tiebreaker based on points.

 

Game Summaries:

In a tale of one ride to open up Maverick Days, the Texas Rattlers shut out the Arizona Ridge Riders 84.75-0 Thursday night. Brady Fielder rode Josey Wales for 84.75 points in the lone ride needed for the Rattlers.

 

Fielder’s 17th ride of the season marked his fifth straight qualified ride.
