Lede
 * Per Manual of Style/Lead section, the lede properly summarizes content from all sections of the article.
 * I suggest adding to the lead that the victory by Cambridge was the largest winning margin since the 1929 race and the first time in the history of the race that Cambridge had equalled the successful winning streaks of Oxford between 1861 and 1869, and 1890 and 1898.
 * The lede is otherwise written well, its contents are internally-cited and verifiable, and I have no further comments, questions, or suggestions.

Background
 * The caricature of Harcourt Gilbey Gold has been released into the public domain and is therefore available for use here.
 * This section is written well, its contents are internally-cited and verifiable, and I have no further comments, questions, or suggestions.

 * The table is beautifully formatted and all its contents are sourced by inline citations.
 * This section is written well, its contents are internally-cited and verifiable, and I have no further comments, questions, or suggestions.

 * As mentioned in the lede section of the review, move some content into the lede to better represent this section in the article's summary.
 * This section is written well, its contents are internally-cited and verifiable, and I have no further comments, questions, or suggestions.


 * Sorry I didn't get round to this sooner, I didn't seem to receive a notification of the review, I think the bot is a bit screwy at the moment. I've addressed your comments, thanks for the review, let me know if there's anything else I can do.  The Rambling Man (talk) 11:42, 1 March 2015 (UTC)
