fastest breed of horse
The fastest breeds will be the breeds that are bred specifically for racing. Of course the first breed people associate with racing is the Thoroughbred. This breed has hundreds of years of selective breeding to be faster at longer distances. But he comes in second place right after the American Quarter Horse. The Quarter Horse is the fastest breed over 1/4 mile races. He is bred for sprinting and he does it well. <br /><br /> After these would be horses that are bred to race inside of their breed. An example would be the Arabian.
