Disco Party is the one to draw in the bareback

Disco Party, a bareback horse from the Calgary Stampede pen, has been getting noticed in the PRCA bareback riding circuit. The horse has been marked to a 92 this season, the high mark on the trip. Across 3 scored trips in 2026, Disco Party averages 91.2 points, putting it among the rank end of the bareback pen.

Rocker Steiner leads the 2026 PRCA World Standings for Bareback Riding with $122,132. However, with Disco Party's impressive scores, it is likely that the horse will be a formidable competitor in upcoming rodeos.

This week, several top bareback riders will be competing in the Reno Rodeo, which is part of the summer run of the PRCA season. The summer run includes several major rodeos, including the Calgary Stampede, which will take place from July 3-12.

In the 2026 PRCA season, the top 15 athletes by regular-season earnings will qualify for the Wrangler NFR, set to take place from December 3-12 in Las Vegas.

Disco Party's consistency and high scores make it a force to be reckoned with in the bareback riding competition.

The PRCA bareback riding circuit has seen some exciting competitions so far, with Rocker Steiner sitting atop the standings. Steiner is scheduled to undergo neck surgery and will be stepping away from competition for approximately three months.

The NILE in Billings, Mont., has added an Xtreme Bareback event titled the Riggin Masters, offering a $100,000 purse for the top 24 PRCA bareback riders in the PRCA standings.
