Clue : A boast even at a bet ? It's nothing but a story. (5, 3, 2, 1, 4)
Answer : Three men in a boat.
Even with all the cross letters I could not get the answer and still cannot parse. Help please ?

What are the cross letters Donny?
Question Author
The answer is correct, Danny, it's from a Times book of crosswords.
I had t?r?e / ?e? / i? / a / ?o?t.
Got me Donny.Thought partly an anagram but no 'r' or 'h''

I could see Three men in a boat as an answer for a story but could not parse. Spent ages trying to get an answer and in the end looked in the back of the book for the answer(something I hate doing)
Pity the book didn't give a parse.
