Julie Leggett
Two-time CFR Qualifier Julie Leggett and her gelding FDI Cash to Burn (Judge Cash X Burnit Brownie) aka “Ice”, claiming a first place time of 14.817 seconds.

The first of five Canadian Finals Rodeo performances at Rexall Place, kicked-off November 11 and several top names from Canada and the US picked up the first go-round buckles. With over $1.5 million dollars to be won at Edmonton, there is still a lot of money on the line before the 2015 champions are crowned after Sunday’s final performance.
