Rochdale’s Ruth Walczak, who showed good consistency during the weekend after a disrupted winter, was fifth in the lightweight women’s final behind Imogen Walsh.
Sir David Tanner, GB Rowing Team Performance Director, said: “We have had some outstanding racing today with some fantastic tight finishes and whilst most of our top guns have performed to their best we have seen some young talent come through as well.
“The attitude and discipline of our rowers this weekend has been exceptional and this will be a good base for us to form our boats for the European Championships over the next few weeks.”
That squad will be announced on May 13.
