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...)
The Quarter Horse is the fastest horse in the world for short distances, 1/4 mile, more or less. That's why they are called quarter horses.
Most likely the Thoroughbred, at 45ish miles an hour.
Thoroughbred horses were bred to be race horses. They are fast indeed, but it doesnt mean they are the fastest.
The Thoroughbred was used in the developement of the Quarter Horse and it is still a big influence in the Quarter Horse industry today. If asked, most people know about the Thoroughbred as the world's fastest breed. But only for long distances. The Quarter Horse is faster than the Thoroughbred for short distances, such as a quarter mile race. Think of the Thoroughbred as a long distance runner as compared to a sprinter, the QH.
They're better because they are the fastest breed of horse and are used as racehorses.
it depends for how long because a quarter horse can go faster then a thoroughbred but only for so long as a thoroughbred can go for very long as this breed is famous for racing.
Well going by breed, that would be a Thoroughbred, as for a specific horse I'm not sure.
Well it just depends on what type of breed it is. Like the Thoroughbred, its the fastest breed, can run to 40miles and hour.

The fastest breed of horse is the American Quarter horse, which can reach up to 55 m/h (88 km/h) for a short distance. A Thoroughbred horse can only run as fast as 45mph.
Over short distances (up to about a quarter mile) it is the American Quarter Horse. For medium distances (up to about 3 miles) the Thoroughbred tends to be the fastest. Over very very long distances (over 5 miles) it is the Arabian.
thoroughbreds It depends on the distance. A quarter horse will outrun a thoroughbred in the 1/4 miles, but after that, it's all thoroughbred.
