Strange place this THL lol atb walshy Hi walshy I think Hancock was a legend in his own right but in fairness he concentrated mainly on lampers and the man was a perfectionist at what he did well he strived for perfection anyway so you have to take your hat off to the guy as for the collie cross in this country I don't know if it suits too well with the amount of obstacles and that I think the collie is far too clever to put up with the abuse .and in saying that too much saluki is every bit as bad it seems .ive seem some real good collie crosses do well in the smaller ground cause there very snappy but in the big ground I don't think there suited much . Speedie might know better even Philip king thinks there might have been a bit of collie in Irish lady somewhere but doesn't know for sure if so she was as good a collie cross as you could get and even more important she was a very good producer.but it's just an opinion.
