Today’s racing highlights at Henley Royal Regatta with Olympic gold medallist and HRR Steward, Mark Hunter.
Race 51. 2:50, The Prince Philip Challenge Trophy. 314 Headington School v Henley Rowing Club
It’s always exciting when a school crew goes up against a club crew in The Prince Philip Challenge Trophy. Headington and Henley finished third and fourth respectively in the National Schools’ Regatta Girls Championship Eight A Final - what will happen tomorrow?
Race 56. 3:20, The Britannia Challenge Cup. 663 Avon Rowing Club v 677 K.A.R.Z.V. De Hoop, Netherlands
These two crews have never come head to head. De Hoop have put their weight behind The Britannia Challenge Cup instead of aiming for their usual place in The Thames Challenge Cup’s later stages; who will come out on top?
Race 79. 6:40, The Island Challenge Cup. 222 Imperial College London v 245 University of London
Rivalry from the ridgeway! Two London academic clubs go up against each other in this Island match up.
Happy birthday, Mark!
