Wrexham born rower Chris Bartley has helped Team GB to victory in the first heat of the lightweight men's four. The boat was first over the line as they took on the Czech Republic, Australia and Germany at Eton Dorney. The result means automatic qualification for the semi-finals on Tuesday so Bartley won't compete in tomorrow's repechage.
