Is the thoroughbred the fastest horse in the world?

Answer 1

No, there is Arabian, Appaloosa, Thoroughbred, Quarter Horse, American Paint Horses, and mutt races. I know this because I am a horse racing freak. I keep a log on all TB race horses that have a chance in the big races (Kentucky Derby, Melbourne Cup, Belmont Stakes, etc...)

Answer 2

Yes the Thoroughbred is a purebred. The Thoroughbred has been a purebred ever since it's studbook closed to outside blood.

Answer 3

The quarter horse is the fastest horse over the quarter of a mile, but the thoroughbred is faster over larger distances.

Answer 4

No. They aren't a species, but a breed. And there are plenty of thoroughbreds.

Answer 5

no
