What is the Bonus Race World Finals?
The Bonus Race World Finals is an annual event that features two main races — the Bonus Race World Finals Race and the BRWF $10,000 Added Open Jackpot — plus the option of entering the Ultimate Bonus Hi-Stakes Sidepot. Breakaway roping is part of the Finals too.
There is no membership fee required for the Bonus Race World Finals. We do not mail anything; everything is done online.
Barrel racing
Added money for the Bonus Race World Finals is compiled from $1/run from approved qualifier events held in the previous year. Each qualifier event or series awards qualifiers to enter the Finals. Once you’ve earned a qualifier you are eligible to enter the BRWF the following year, and multiple qualifiers can be earned. A rider can enter unlimited times, but a horse can only run in the BRWF 2 times maximum.
The Open Jackpot has $10,000 added, sponsored by Double B Productions, LLC, and is open to everyone — you do not need a qualifier.
The Bonus Race pays full awards through 10th place plus buckles to division leaders from every session. A horse may run 2x max (in different sessions), and a unique qualifier ID# is required for each entry. Riders who win qualifiers on site in the Open Jackpot may add on to any session of the Bonus Race as a late entry.
Breakaway
3D full-second-split breakaway — no qualification needed. See the Breakaway page for the current fees and sidepots.
How do you win a qualifier ID# for the Bonus Race World Finals?
Qualifier ID#s are awarded at approved events. Watch for BRWF approved events in your area, and ask your local producers to consider making their event a BRWF qualifier. Check the qualifying events list for the current events.
Events are approved either as a series (accumulating points over the entire series to award qualifiers) or as a single qualifier (qualifiers given at one show on the day of the event). Qualifiers are given on a 5D regardless of how the event is paid off — even if the event pays 4D, qualifiers are awarded on a 5D 1/2 second split. The number of qualifiers awarded depends on TOTAL entries for the single race or entire series:
| 1-75 entries | 1 qualifier |
| 76-150 entries | 2 qualifiers |
| 151-225 entries | 3 qualifiers |
| 226-300 entries | 4 qualifiers |
| 301-375 entries | 5 qualifiers |
| 376-450 entries | 6 qualifiers |
| 451-525 entries | 7 qualifiers |
| 526-600 entries | 8 qualifiers |
| 601-675 entries | 9 qualifiers |
Qualifier ID#s are not transferable to another rider and cannot be carried over to another year’s World Finals.
