Here's your podium from AT&T Stadium. The only thing that remained the same from last week's top three trio was James Stewart's spot atop among them. That shakes up the points a little, and the momentum a lot. Check below for a bit on the top ten's night.

1. Here's your winner. With his second win in two weeks, James Stewart's confidence is growing, and he's cutting into Ryan Villopoto's points lead.

2. Ryan Dungey (Red Bull KTM) grabbed the holeshot and led early, but James Stewart had some faster lines and made his way by after Ryan led for two laps.

3. Justin Barcia (Team Honda Muscle Milk) made some changes to his bike at home this week in an effort to make it easier to ride, and was rewarded with a third-place finish.

4. Dallas was rough on Ryan Villopoto, with his first trip off the podium since Anaheim 2. While he extended his lead on Ken Roczen to 12, his fourth allowed James Stewart to make up a third of the points that he was behind Villopoto.

5. We like Justin Brayton's never-give-up attitude, and he was rewarded this week with a fifth-place finish for himself and the Toyota/Yamaha/JGRMX crew. He got by Ken Roczen for the spot with less than a handful of laps remaining in the main.

6. Ken Roczen (Red Bull KTM) has finished sixth three times this season, and he was in the middle of some big battles this week, with Justin Barcia (which he wasn't happy about), and Ryan Villopoto.

7. RCH Racing Soaring Eagle's Broc Tickle scored his best finish of the season with a sixth in Dallas.

8. Wil Hahn (GEICO Honda) sat out last week's race in San Diego because he felt it was unsafe to compete with a hand that'd been injured two weeks in a row. This week he was back in eighth spot after starting in 12th.

9. It's pretty amazing that Josh Hill (RCH Racing Soaring Eagle) had to sit out a couple races due to a broke collarbone, and is scoring top ten finishes not long after.

10. Andrew Short (BTO Sports/KTM) has ended up in tenth for three of the last four weeks.
