What rowing betting markets are available at Sky Bet?

Everyone loves the passion, sweat and tears of the sport of rowing.

From memories of Steve Redgrave at the Olympics to countless university boat races on the Thames, there are plenty of online betting markets available through Sky Bet for major events in the rowing calendar.

The Boat Race between Oxford and Cambridge universities is always thrilling entertainment. It could only be enhanced with some top notch rowing betting provided by Sky Bet. Since 1829 the teams have competed, putting their sheer strength, power and teeth gritting determination head to head in order to see who the best team is. In 2009 Oxford retained their 2008 title so will be looking for 3 in a row next time they clash. They’ll also be looking to bridge the gap victory wise. Cambridge has won 79 races whilst Oxford trail behind on 75. Only one draw has ever been recorded and that was way back in 1877. Sky Bet gave online betting odds of 100/1 that it would happen again in 2009.

Other Boat Race markets usually include the overall winning time and the possibility that we see sinking boats. 8/1 was offer in 2009 for a record time to be rowed. It was not broken and remains at 16minutes 19seconds. Cambridge will be looking for revenge as Oxford still taste the victory of previous years. Whatever happens Sky Bet will be there offering oar-dropping online betting markets, whilst looking ahead to London 2012 where rowing betting will indeed feature once again.
