Best Answer

The only original breed of horse, which all other light horse breeds derive from, is the Arabian. This does not include draft horses, ponies or donkeys. Arabians are the only horses of pure blood in the world; they pass on their beauty, strength, stamina and intelligence. The first breed to derive from the Arabian was the Thoroughbred, next in no particular order, were the Morgan, the Quarter Horse, Saddlebred, Tennessee Walker, Standardbred, Appaloossa, many more, including the American Mustang.

Do throughbreds run faster than other breeds?

The answer is yes. Other breeds of horses have been known to out-race thoroughbreds. The Morgan horse is one of these, who was recorded to successfully out-run two valuable thoroughbreds. The standardbred is another breed that can out-race thoroughbreds. I own a nine year old, 15.1hh stb mare and she has out-raced 16hh+ 13 year old successful racing thoroughbreds.
