    In depth

    Verdict

    Living's Boy An Co is a long way out of the handicap proper. Winning hurdler Saint Arvans wasn’t beaten far on his chasing bow while Captain Ivan, a winning hurdler twice last summer, should make a hurdler but GRISBI DE BERCE had the proverbial ton in hand at Huntingdon at the start of the month and the third has franked the form since.
