Earth & hounds, it looks to me that you have hijacked a lads genuine enquiry about a possible stud dog to cover his bitch.
Granted it doesnt say that he wants a dog for lamping, but it also doesnt say "wanted, good ferreting dog shit at lamping"
The guy is after a stud , not someones cast offs.
I tend to agree with Royston 2 on this post, if I was wanting a stud dog, I would be looking for something that excelled at everything, why breed with a dog that the owner admits is shit at a particular aspect of lurcher work.
Polecat, you have a pm.
