High River’s Northcott Macza Rodeo have sent "Sunny" the bull and a trio of horses, while Vold Rodeo sent bull "Vertigo Spy" and a couple of bucking horses.

Four Alberta cowboys will be competing, including steer wrestler, Curtis Cassidy from Donalda, Ponoka’s Levi Simpson and Barhead’s Kolton Schmidt in team roping and Big Valley’s Zeke Thurston in saddle bronc.

The NFR runs through to the finals on Saturday, December 12.
