Adrian Cassidy had been coaching a 'development' crew full of binned trialists and college oarsmen, who were rowing as Goldie. They started immediately behind us and that was pretty good incentive to row hard.
We pulled away at the start, they came back a little and were 1 1/2 seconds down at Barnes Bridge. They then crashed into a boat we had just overtaken.
