Trevor Brazile and his string of horses across the heading and heeling amassed $151,585 in Royal Crown earnings over the incentive’s three shows in 2023—including wins in the 4-&-Under Heeling at all three shows on two different horses.

Brazile rode Not White At All (by Not Ruf At All out of Snappy Lil Spook by Smart Spook) to the Royal Crown 4-&-Under Heeling title in Buckeye in February and Oklahoma City in May, and then followed that up with a win on Pride And Joyy (by Stevie Rey Von out Fun N Fancy Free by Peptoboonsmal). Brazile rode the single-richest team roping horse, Step N Small Town (by Wimpys Royal King out of Small Town Blondys by Von Starlight) to $40,236—second to Rollin On The River, a calf horse piloted by Shane Hanchey that also won money in the breakaway, too, for $53,520 in 2023 earnings.

Woody Be Tuff (by Nitas Wood out of Tuffs Junie by Tuff Lena) out-earned all stallions in the program with $77,726 in offspring earnings at Royal Crown events in 2023. Woody Be Tuff stands at the Lazy E Ranch in Guthrie, Oklahoma, and he is owned by Solo Select in partnership with Kaleb Terlip.
