Bensmiller chases his fifth Stampede title on Sunday, while MacGillivray and Knight are looking for their first crowns in the dash for cash.
Off the No. 2 barrel in the fourth heat on Saturday night during rainy conditions, Dallas Dyck guided his Northback chuckwagon around the track in Saturday’s fastest time of 1:12.23.Knight edged Vern Nolin by an even slimmer margin of 1/100ths of a second to finish second on the night for a payday of $5,200.
Although Benmsiller figured out how to run penalty-free aboard his Grey Eagle Resort and Casino wagon on his way to finishing atop the standings, he never found a way to finish first on any of the first nine nights of racing. Meanwhile, MacGillivray’s best showings were a pair of second-place finishes on Nights 3 and 8 atop his Spray Lakes Sawmills rig behind Obrey Motowylo and Vigen, respectively.
“It’s where you need to be, for sure,” said MacGillivray of making a return trip to the championship dash. “It’s the biggest stage. You definitely want to do well and try and take home a few dollars in the process.”
