 * "Cambridge went to Putney ten days before the race which was scheduled for 24 March, Oxford practised there for eight days." Rewrite to "Cambridge went to Putney ten days before the race which was scheduled for 24 March, whilst Oxford practised there for eight days."
 * Done. The Rambling Man (talk) 20:03, 20 November 2014 (UTC)

Race
 * Do any reliable sources describe the weather conditions?
 * Added some comment from Drinkwater. The Rambling Man (talk) 20:11, 20 November 2014 (UTC)
 * "Oxford won the toss for the fifth consecutive year and elected to start on the Middlesex side of the river, handing the Surrey station to Cambridge." Source here please.
 * Is already sourced by ref 13. The Rambling Man (talk) 20:03, 20 November 2014 (UTC)

That's all the issues I could find. I will promote once these are addressed. good888 (talk) 19:30, 20 November 2014 (UTC)
