Thoroughbred foals come into the world like all other breeds of horses. The gestation for horses is 320 to 340 days average. Thoroughbreds are tall horses and a lot of newborns may weigh a little more than smaller breeds which is about 100 lbs. at birth. Thoroughbred foals have very long legs and from almost the minute they are born they love to run, which is exactly what they were bred to do. Thoroughbreds usually have a bigger lung capacity so they can run longer distances. The American Quarter Horse is faster than a Thoroughbred but only for a quarter mile. The distance belongs to the Thoroughbred. Generally speaking, these horses are amazing athletes and one of the most beautiful breeds.
