Many feel that a male horse that is gelded will run faster. Of course, he won't be able to sire any foals after his racing career is over.
No, you should walk next to the horse's shoulder. If you lead the horse from directly in front of it, and something spooks the horse from behind it, its natural instinct would be to run away from whatever spooked it, which, in this case, would be forward. If you are in front of the horse, you would probably get crushed by it. However, if you are on the side, the horse won't be able to hurt you, and you will be able to regain control faster.
a horse that has not been gelded or would be able to make a horse pregnate.
Most likely, King Henry VIII used children in horse racing because they are small and light-weight. The less weight that is on a horse, the faster it will be able to run. Therefore, using children instead of adults would result in faster horses because they are not weighed down.

Yes and no; a long, lean racing horse will run faster than a short, stocky pony, but a Shire, a big, heavy draft horse, which is much bigger than a racing horse, would not be able to out run the racer. The length of legs, muscles, ability to breathe well, etc is important.
Usually a horse would have to be 2 and a half to be able to breed
While one might believe that a giraffe (giraffa camelopardalis) would be able to maintain a higher velocity due to the greater length of its extremities, it would be an erroneous conjecture to do so. Indeed, while a giraffe may have the ascendancy of lengthier appendages, a zebra (equus zebra) can most definitely go faster because it has four legs.
Yes, the Argentavis which was basically a bird had to be a giant so that it would be able to catch the horse.
they were able to transport stuff alot faster then let say dog sled or horse back
No If a horse had an exoskeleton you would be able to see its bones outside of it's body, like you can with an ant or a spider
A horse can can be able to get registered in a equestrian centre
