Morayfield teen rides in Maroon
A Morayfield teenager is set to compete among the nation’s elite bull riders, as the Professional Bull Riders (PBR) circuit prepares for the ultimate Origin decider in Sydney on July 5.
Jaxsen Tremayne, 18, will be flying the flag for Team Queensland in the junior exhibition ahead of the PBR Monster Energy Origin III showdown, riding alongside Clayton Walker (Colosseum, 10), Wylie Roots (Duaringa, 12), and Rex Walker (Colosseum, 15).
Jaxsen has been identified as the 2024 Rising Star, earning attention for his fierce determination and technical skill, carving his own path in a sport where toughness and talent go hand in hand.
This year’s Origin Series is going down to the wire after Queensland and New South Wales split the first two events. With both teams chasing glory, the final clash at Sydney’s ICC Theatre will decide not only state bragging rights but also the coveted Cowboy of Origin title—currently led by Queensland’s Kurt Shephard, with just two points separating the top three riders.
While the pros will battle it out for supremacy, Tremayne and his junior teammates will showcase the next generation of talent on mini bulls in front of a packed house.
“We have the tightest leaderboard for Cowboy of Origin in PBR Origin history, and with only two points separating the top three riders — it’s anyone’s buckle,” said PBR Australia Managing Director Glen Young.
“Every ride, every second, and every point will count as the country’s best cowboys throw down in the dirt for state pride.
“This is the PBR Monster Energy Origin Series — where the toughest riders from Queensland and New South Wales go head-to-head in a brutal test of courage, grit, and raw power.
“It’s eight seconds of chaos that means everything. Anything can happen — and usually does.”
For Jaxsen, this represents a significant step in his growing career, placing the Morayfield local in the spotlight on a national stage.
