Clare Balding introduces coverage as Cambridge and Oxford meet in the 160th Boat Race in south west London.

Oxford took a comfortable victory in the 2013 race and have included three Olympians - including London 2012 bronze medallist Constantine Louloudis - in the crew for their title defence.

The defending champions are pinning their hopes on experience rather than brute force, with their crew conceding more than two kilograms per man to rivals Cambridge.

Clare Balding is joined by guests including Sir Matthew Pinsent and London 2012 gold medallists Tom James, Katherine Grainger and Anna Watkins.
