Will Cambridge Heavyweights Crush
Bookies?
A
further stat has come out in Cambridge's favour after the
crew weighed in at an average of 9 ounces heavier than their
rivals Oxford - two thirds of all previous races have been
won by the heavier crew. As a result, Cambridge are the red
hot 4/7 favourites for this year's race with
William
Hill who offer 5/4
for an Oxford victory.
William Hill have also cut
the price of either boat sinking in the race from 33/1 to
25/1 as the Met Office forecast has deteriorated.
"All the stats seem to
point to a Cambridge victory which has not escaped punters,
with over 90% of bets accepted so far on the light blues. It
looks like the only thing that will save us is Cambridge
sinking which has shortened from 33/1 to 25/1." said William
Hill 's spokesman Rupert Adams.
William Hill odds to win
the Boat Race: 4/7 Cambridge, 5/4 Oxford, 100/1 Dead
Heat.
Who will win the toss? -
10/11 Cambridge, 10/11 Oxford.
Length Of Winning Margin:
11/8 Between two and three lengths, 7/4 Over three, 2/1 Two
or less
Specials:
6/1 for the record time to
be beaten (16 minutes and 19 seconds).
25/1 either or both boats to sink. (last sinking occurred -
1978, Cambridge).
250/1 for race to be postponed due to Water based animals on
the course (Hippo & Crocs included).
