10 Ghurkali anag hug(e) lark I

Gurkhali
Bob, is the other clue correct?
10a Gurkhali - anag 'hug(e) lark I'
17d Loghtyn (alt sp. of Loaghtan, a sheep) - 'l(arge)' + anag 'hog' + even letters 'sTaYiNg'
Sorry, missed that it's an Isle of Man sheep -

The alt. sp. is given in Chambers

many thanks scorpiojo baldric and lie-in-king - sorry my 'e' was wrong in clue
Meh, 2 little letters... :-)

Question Author
and again scorpiojo and lie-in-king many thanks for your help and explanation
Compiler here: Yes, Bob 454 missed some of the quoted clue out. In the FG it read as 'Large frisky hog, ignoring the odds, staying maybe in Isle of Man flock'. Clearly, Lie-in-kng's first answer is what the word-play says.
Happy solve!
Thank you, Ruth :)
