Comments from NickGibson3900:

  1. "Races not "Race"
  2. "The Boat Race is an side-by-side rowing..." Should be "The Boat Race is a side-by-side rowing..."
  3. Is ref #7 supposed to reference the statement saying that both coxes were female?
  4. I assume, because of your thorough checks on these subjects that, there is nothing on the women's/reserve's race nor a better picture?
    All addressed. Correct, nothing more on those items. Thanks for the review. The Rambling Man (talk) 08:00, 23 July 2014 (UTC)[reply]
So in reply to No. 3 your answer in yes The Rambling Man? It's a bit unclear.
I added a specific ref at the end of the sentence in question. The Rambling Man (talk) 08:15, 23 July 2014 (UTC)[reply]
