2008 4BR Money List

Not much movement after Yorkshire, but it could be the first deposit in their bid for Money List glory for Black Dyke....

Money
 

With the first of the regional contest out of the way there hasn’t been much movement in the Money List, but Black Dyke make their first appearance – it may not be their last.

Black Dyke’s victory at Bradford may not have sent them scorching up the 4BR Money List yet (they are joint 50th), but if they repeat that form later in the year at the English Nationals, Whit Friday, British Open and National Finals they could challenge for the title.

With just £200 for the winners, £100 for second place and £75 for third, even after this weekend Desford won’t be caught, but they may just add a few extra pounds to their bank balance.
