Oxford And Cambridge Boat Race 2011 Betting Odds Have Cambridge Hot Favourites This Year
Wednesday 23 March 2011 at 10:29
Reigning champions Cambridge are the hot favourites this year in the Oxford And Cambridge Boat Race 2011 Betting Odds. It was Oxford who were favourites last year in the Boat Race odds but Cambridge upset those odds and are now expected to retain their Boat Race title.
Cambridge Favourites To Retain Their Title
Cambridge won the Boat Race last year, in 2007, in 2004 and 2001 but Oxford have held the edge over the past decade with six wins. In the 90s Cambridge dominated the Boat Race with seven wins in a row between 1993 and 1999, they will be hoping last years success can spark another run like that. Bet365 are offering 1/2 on back to back Cambridge victories whilst anyone looking to back Oxford can get generous looking odds of 13/8 with William Hill considering their recent record in the race. The draw, a result we haven't had since the last dead heat in 1877, does not make too much appeal despite the huge odds of 100/1 with Bet365 and Stan James.
Winning Margin And Odds On A Boat Sinking
The winning margin is often a popular bet, the most likely result in this market is an under 3 length victory for either team and that looks a strong bet at 8/11 with Bet365, who offer up to 200GBP in free bets to new customers. Meanwhile you can bet on 3 lengths and over which is even money with Bet365. Each year the bookies offer special odds on a boat sink, the last time a boat sank was in 1984 and Cambridge also sank in 1978, whilst in 1912, the year The Titanic sank, both boats sank! William Hill are offering 25/1 that either boat sinks this year. For more Boat Race Odds and Specials click on any of the orange bookie links above.
