Local chuckwagon drivers are still in the thick of things after five nights of racing at the Calgary Stampede's Rangeland Derby.

Chanse Vigen continues to lead the way in the aggregate, but Okotoks Mark Sutherland in 14th, and the High River duo of Jason Glass in 18th, and Jordie Fike in 20th are both only about a second back of the eighth spot held by 2009 Stampede Champion, Chad Harden.

2017 Guy Weadick Days champ, Kurt Bensmiller, Colt Cosgrave, driving the High River Autoplex wagon, Rick Fraser and Troy Dorchester are the top five wagons heading into night six of racing Wednesday, July 12.

The top eight after Friday head to "Semi Final Saturday," with the top four over the last two heats from that night heading to "Showdown Sunday" and the "Dash for Cash" $100,000 final.
