Cashing in at Vegas: Troubadour has Morenos dancing.
Byline: Todd R. Hansen
Nov. 1--Julio and Cindy Moreno are dancing their way to the bank to the tunes of Troubadour, a 4-year-old bucking bull that just cashed in on a kind of PBR futurity.
"He is one of the last calves from Whitewater ... and is out of a Typhoon daughter. Typhoon is another bull we owned that went to the PBR Finals," said Cindy Moreno in a phone interview Tuesday from Las Vegas, Nev.
Vegas is currently hosting the PBR Finals, and it is there Troubadour, which has yet to be ridden in 21 rides this calendar year and has an average score of 22.51 out of a possible 25 points each ride, earned his mark.
Troubadour also earned the Morenos $250,000 as the top-ranked bull in the 3-4 age division, combining scores from the first two rounds at the Finals and two scored events in Enid, Okla.
The Morenos share ownership in another bull, Charlie Bull Ware, which finished ninth in the judging.
The competition was sponsored by the American Bucking Bull Inc. -- a bull breeding and registration organization Julio Moreno and Flying U Rodeo patriarch Cotton Rosser helped form -- in conjunction with Professional Bull Riders.
