Mr. Light holds the record for the fastest (officially recorded) mile ever run by a horse. The horse was 6 years old and 118lbs. It was recorded at Gulfstream Park 1/03/2005. The time was 131.41 seconds. The race was run on turf.

Note: The previous record was held for more than 30 years (1968) by Dr. Fager on a dirt track and a time of 132.20. See Web Links for more horse racing records

I dont believe this is true. Dr Fager ran a mile in 1:32 and 1/5th. That is substantially quicker than what you posted.

The answer is makibi Diva won Melbourne cup 3 times in a row

I don't believe that is the case. Yes she won 3 Melbourne Cups but does that mean she is the fastest? I don't think so. I think it might be either Man O' War or Secretariat. But Secretariat did win the Belmont Stakes in record time but I don't think there is any record of the fastest horse. Even if there was we would believe differently
