Cambridge have named three Boat Race winners in their 2011 crew as they aim to defend their title against Oxford

Britain’s George Nash, Canadian Geoff Roth and American Derek Rasmussen all featured in last year’s victory.

Welshman Ben Myers is the only Oxford rower to have raced last year, in a crew which lost by four seconds.

But the dark blues also named Karl Hudspith and Constantine Louloudis, who finished seventh in recent GB trials, in their line-up for 26 March.

Louloudis has followed four-time Olympic champion Matthew Pinsent’s route from Eton College to Oxford and is thought to have an outside chance of a place in a British crew at the London 2012 Olympics.
