The Quarter Horse is fastest for sprints. They race a quarter-mile. Thoroughbreds are fastest for anything longer than that. Arabians are best for endurance. The fastest mile for a horse was around 1 minute, 35 seconds. This record was set by the TB racehorse Salvador.

It was a horse, I think...
The Quarter Horse is the fastest horse in the world, for a quarter of a mile. The Thoroughbred, most often used in horse racing, has more endurance for an entire mile, but still cannot beat the Quarter Horse in a quarter-of-a-mile race. Hence the name 'Quarter Horse'. This is exactly what you want in a horse when you are working cattle - short bursts of extraordinary speed.
Secretariat.
A gallop
The fastest recorded mile walk is 5 minutes and 31 seconds, achieved by Tom Bosworth of Great Britain in 2017.
As of October 2014 the fasted ten mile race was run by Haile Gebrselassie. The race was run in only 44 minutes and 24 seconds.
I believe it's called the American Quarter Horse. Its name comes from the fact that it can easily outdistance other horses in races of a quarter mile or less, even from a standing start. Some individuals have been clocked at 55 miles per hour.
Secretariat is a horse.His breed: thoroughbred. The only horse that's allowed on the race track. Clueless I once was to know the American Quarter Horse is the fastest horse ever, clocked up to 65 MPH.
Tobiano, being a color pattern, matters not on the speed of a horse. A Paint is derived from the Quarter Horse. At best, the fastest run given by a Quarter Horse at a quarter mile race was 55 mph. Although, this is the clocked speed from a race horse with impeccable conformation and breeding for speed. But an average horse at a full gallop typically has a speed of 35 mph.
