The 68th Women's Boat Race took place on 24 March 2013. The race, between crews representing Oxford University Women's Boat Club and Cambridge University Women's Boat Club, was conducted as part of the Henley Boat Races. It took place on a stretch of water on 2012 Olympic venue Dorney Lake. Cambridge were the heavier of the crews and consisted of an all-British crew, while Oxford's boat included a Hungarian rower and an American cox. Oxford won the race by one and three-quarter lengths in a time of 7 minutes 11 seconds, their first win since the 2011 race. The victory took the overall record in the event to 41–27 in Cambridge's favour. ==Background==
The Women's Boat Race is a side-by-side rowing competition between Oxford University Women's Boat Club (OUWBC) and the Cambridge University Women's Boat Club (CUWBC) that has taken place since 1927.〔 It was conducted as part of the Henley Boat Races, which for 2013 was hosted at the 2012 Summer Olympics venue of Dorney Lake in Buckinghamshire instead of the traditional straight course at Henley-on-Thames. Strong winds and stream conditions on the River Thames had precipitated the move to the Olympic venue.〔 Cambridge went into the race as champions, having won the previous year's race by one quarter of a length, and led 41–26 overall. The race was sponsored by Newton Investment Management, a subsidiary of The Bank of New York Mellon, for the third successive year. Cambridge were led by Rob Baker who had previously coached Goldie to victory in 2006 and 2007.〔 Baker was assisted by British Olympic quadruple sculls silver medallist Annie Vernon. Oxford's coach was Canadian former Olympic and University trainer Christine Wilson. She was assisted by British Olympic rower Natasha Page who was part of the women's eights that came fifth in both the 2008 and 2012 Summer Olympics.
