Id say hmm about 40mph or like 38mph a Thoroughhbred can run about 55mph :
Just as fast as any other horse! Not as fast as a thourobred or a quarter horse but pretty fast!
Tobiano, being a color pattern, matters not on the speed of a horse. A Paint is derived from the Quarter Horse. At best, the fastest run given by a Quarter Horse at a quarter mile race was 55 mph. Although, this is the clocked speed from a race horse with impeccable conformation and breeding for speed. But an average horse at a full gallop typically has a speed of 35 mph.
Because they are very fast and can easily chase down cattle.
The Quarter Horse is the best ranch horse because of their ability to run fast, short, distances.
Dolphins are pretty fast but I don't think they could beat a Quarter Horse.
American Quarter Horses are the fastest horse in the world, and one of the fastest animals. They can run at speeds up to 55 mph. They can cover a quarter-mile in less than 21 seconds, starting from a flat-footed standstill, hence there name the quarter horse. i hope this somewhat helped :)
40-45 beats per minute
A Quarter horse is a sprinter and would not be able to sustain anything over a quarter of a mile distance at a gallop, they do not have endurance along with their speed, though they can work long hours at the walk and trot.Within a ten hour period a Quarter horse would only cover one or maybe two quarter mile distances.
They have an "average" speed. Definitely not as fast as a Quarter horse at the Quarter mile, nor as fast as a Thoroughbred at the 1-1.5 mile range nor as fast as an Arabian over long distances. But, know there are always exceptions to the "average" rule.
Quarter horses are named that because they can run a Quarter of a mile really fast. They had races in the old days for a quarter of a mile and they would use Quarter horses for them. Now Quarter Horses aren't as popular for racing, because Thoroughbreds have better stamina.
The American Quarter Horse is used in most rodeo events because it is fast and can turn and stop quickly.
Over a short period of time, like a quarter of a mile, a quarter horse. They have been known to go up to 50 or even 55 miles an hour for a quarter of a mile. However, they cannot run that fast over a quarter of a mile. in a long distance race the thoroughbred would win.
