Riata Stallion Incentive

🚨Results Are In🚨

Here they are ladies and gentlemen, the official results from our #8.5 Championships are in!

We have everything laid out for you, from the newly crowned champions, to the average, and even our fast times from each rotation. While you are digging into these results we encourage you to also take a look at that payout. Across the entire #8.5 division we paid out a massive total of $484,700 (including ropers, stallions and first time nominators).

Congratulations to everyone that came out and roped with us yesterday at the Lazy E Arena! It was a great way to cap off a fantastic week of our 2026 Championships.

Gist Silversmiths absolutely knocked the champion buckles out of the park (per usual) for this year’s roping!

Congratulations to all!

Congrats to all taking home a beautiful custom Gist Buckle from the Riata Stallion Incentive Championships!

🤩 Magic 🤩

The magic of yesterday during our #9.5 roping still hasn’t worn off. We have had some truly incredible moments over the course of this week and we have a lot to be thankful for.

So, take a trip back down memory lane from yesterday with us and stay tuned for more moments in time AND results!

‼️ATTENTION‼️

We’ve got another exciting leaderboard change up for our top 5 Riata stallions based on progeny earnings!

We love seeing those earnings go up not only for our nominated horses but also those stallions and the teams that stand behind them!

Happy Sunday
