CUBC Thursday racing at Henley Royal


Thursday was a quiet day for the Club and its athletes, with the flag being flown by Women’s Blue Boat 5-seat Freya Keto in the Princess Royal Challenge Cup at 9.20 am. After a trip past the Island where her steering was corrected by umpire Sarah Winckless, Freya pulled out to a dominant win against Hazel Wake of City of Oxford RC, in a great display of sculling

The Club’s remaining crews enjoy a rest day in the case of the Visitors’ 4-, and a bye in the case of Caoimhe Dempsey and Isabelle Bastian’s pair. Tom George and Ollie Wynne Griffith, racing for Leander, will commence racing on Friday.
