Harry Dunkerley, 17, who attends Sandringham School in The Ridgeway, has designed a potential front-age for this year’s The BNY Mellon Boat Race on Saturday, April 11.

The teenager has moved into the final eight and the winner will be decided by a public vote, which will finish this Sunday.

The Oxford and Cambridge University Women’s crews will be going to the famous Putney to Mortlake course on the River Thames after competing in Henley.
