The squad will be officially unveiled today (Tuesday) with several local rowers hoping to be included.
Redgrave said that next year's World Championships will be even more crucial, as this is where the qualification for London 2012 takes place.
He added: "Next year is about getting the boats qualified for the Olympics. This is a very big stepping stone towards that."
