Answer:  STRONG AS AN OX

(Very cute!  And, I guess this answers one question.  Is it better to be STRONG LIKE BULL or as STRONG AS AN OX?  All of today’s clue words are old favorites, but three of the jumbles came up as new.  They’ve definitely used “ginaa” in the past.  The answer letter layout was a beautifully cryptic jumble.  It took me a minute or two to come up with the answer, mainly because of the great answer letter layout.  Great animated farm animals.  Lots of fun.  Be well and do good, friends.)   —   YUR
