The Boat Races

Clare Balding introduces live coverage from the River Thames for the Oxford and Cambridge Men's and Women's Boat Races.

From the banks of the River Thames in London, Clare Balding introduces live coverage of one of the oldest and most iconic events in the sporting calendar.
This year's meeting between Oxford and Cambridge universities will see the 162nd men's Boat Race and the 71st contest between the women, who for the second year running compete on the same day and the same course as the men.
Cambridge lead in both the men's and women's all-time standings, but in recent years the Dark Blues of Oxford have proved formidable opponents - winning six of the last eight men's races and seven of the last eight women's contests.
