I've collected some old cigarette cards and one of them is Baltinglass Hope, a W&F July 1936 dog by Hansopinion out of Irish Battle, neither of which are in the database. He was owned by A.E. Whichelle and trained by M. Howard.
Anyone have info on Hansopinion or Irish Battle?

Hi Martin, Sorry I do not have any info on Hansopinion or Irish Battle but I did find reference to Baltinglass Hope which shows that dog finishing 5th in the 1939 greyhound Grand National.
I hope this is of interest and if I find anything regarding his parents I will post details.
