>>I am trying to find out which breeds I can cross to come up with really good hand spinning fleeces and still have good rate of gain for the excess lambs to go to market.<<

There are several out there that would meet your expectations - a "handspinners fleece" - if there actually IS such a thing - is merely a clean, well kept version of one of the above.
