What is top speed of a thoroughbred race horse?

Answer 1

The fastest thoroughbreds average nearly 40mph! And an average thoroughbred runs about 36 mph.

The world record for a Thoroughbred racehorse's average speed over a mile is 43 miles per hour...but their spurts of speed can be slightly faster. Converted to kilometers per hour that equals 69.2km/h.

In the '73 Belmont, it was estimated that Secretariat hit 55 mph down the stretch.
