HANGING ON: Event winner Ben Seeds tries to tame Gulf Western Wolverine at Clive Berghofer Stadium. Kevin Farmer BEN Seeds beat out a familiar competitor to win the $15,000 Tuff Bull Bars Professional Bull Riders All Star Challenge at Clive Berghofer Stadium on Saturday night.
Seeds picked up some good prize money thanks to two good scoring rounds in Toowoomba to beat out Joe Polkinghorne by just two points.
PBR Australia general manager Glen Young said Seeds and Polkinghorne are from the same region, and even work and travel to events together.
They were engaged in a two-way battle for the event win on Saturday night although Dave Kennedy finished just behind Polkinghorne.
Dave Mason finished fourth as the remaining rider to post two eight-second rides.
A crowd of about 3000 spectators was on hand for the Toowoomba round of the Touring Pro series.
Heavy rain on Friday had event organisers on edge about crowd numbers and the competition surface but Young praised the condition of the Clive Berghofer Stadium arena.
"That surface, from that rain we had ... it's a good field," he said.
Young also said he expected a PBR event to return to the city.
