Actually Thoroughbreds are not really sprinters. Of course some Thoroughbreds prefer longer or shorter races because they are all individuals. But most Thoroughbreds are bred for distance. If you want a sprinter the Quarter Horse will get the job done. He won't go the distance but in a quarter mile race he is faster than the Thoroughbred. Quarter Horses have what is called 'quick twitch muscles'. He can stop on a dime and give you a nickel change. That's why he can cut cattle, barrel race, or rein at an Olympic reining competition.
