Punters Backing Cambridge To Clean Up

Bookmakers William Hill have cut the price of Cambridge winning this year's Boat Race from 4/6 to 4/7 following further bets for the light blues.

The bets include a £6000 wager from a William Hill punter in Windsor who correctly backed Oxford to win last year.

"All the money is for Cambridge since Oxford switched their coxswain.", said William Hill's spokesman Rupert Adams.

William Hill Boat Race:

4/7 Cambridge

11/10 Oxford

100/1 Dead Heat

Specials:

2/1 For Oxford to change their coxswain again.

33/1 either or both boats to sink.

6/1 for the record time to be beaten (16 minutes and 19 seconds).
