I would think some racing ones must fail to make the grade, and can be got hold of cheep for working.

Agree  but the stigma of must be “working bred “ puts people off   , I don’t know why?  , race bred show bred can do well , some can go on to be red hot ,  as u well know the owner will be a big factor on how the dog will turn out if conditioned to a high standard as with most dogs  trev 70s show bred bred poppy very smart bitch  no work breds in her ped sort of upends the must  see parents work must be work bred mindset

I'll second that green lurchers some  so called working dogs were a myth but were cleverly advertised as stud dogs in the countryman weekly , earth dog running dogs and people bought into it ... trevs blue bitch just completely blows the so called working tag completely out of the water been primarily show bred..all or 99per cent of whippets will work some better than others but a lot is down to care and maintenance of these fire crackers... as for the race genetics failing I would sooner have a racing bred whippet than following the pied piper and falling into the trap of the working lines tag..just my opinion

when I was a kid a lot of the racing dogs worked  as well, I bred whippet into the coursing stuff to pep them up for the tighter land, then line bred for a gen or two all 22/23 ish and sharp fk.
