Men's Quadruple Sculls (M4X)

Final A

Prediction

ITA remains the overwhelming favorite to with the gold medal. The ITA scullers have 11 gold medals to their collective credit, and know how to add 4 more to that total in Sydney. GER, UKR, AUS and NED ( 1st through 4th at the 1999 Worlds) are expected to wage a separate battle among themselves for the silver and bronze medals. The semi-finals times were used to produce the prediction race bulletin bbelow, and those times suggest NED has a slight edge to get the silver. To do so, NED must row through both UKR and GER in the last 500, not an easy thing to do with recent gold and silver medalists in both of those boats. AUS and SUI are projected to finish 5th and 6th.
