Guest chad3646 Posted August 20, 2013 Report Posted August 20, 2013 Shy lass was a superb hen. However, she was not the hen her g-dam was. the 916 hen or Atomique. She was the dam of the Musketeer Cock and therefore g-dam to Tom Larkins 3 Musketeers. She is also the g-dam of John Palmer's No 1 stock hen the 17333 hen. Easily the equal of Shy Lass. When Tom Larkins clocked his 4 cocks into the same thimble to win that now legendary Wadebridge Open by over and hour, 2 of the cocks were her grandchildren (2 musketeers) the other 2 were her own sons. Tom later paired her to D'artagnan, her grandson. She left several dynasties of winners including that of George Corbett. Makes the mouth water boys, don't it just. tom larkins clocked his 4 cocks into the same thimble to win the now legendary wadebridge open by over an hour,just wondering which cock would have got the honours

BLACK W F Posted August 27, 2013 Report Posted August 27, 2013 they were never anything pure to start with just pure winners bang on the money rab just a big gene pool of winners that still win well today only difference being some guys in different areas kept certain winning lines that done well for them
