The primary gaits are walk, trot, canter, gallop and run. Some people use the term gallop and run interchangably.
Traditionally, canter is a slower 3 beat gait and gallop or (hand gallop) is the faster version of a canter and still 3 beats.
In racing the fastest gait is 4 beats and the horse is said to be running.
No, the fastest a horse can go is a full gallop. That's VERY fast. But canter is still fast. :P
Hope I helped.
LOCKETBUG :D
Thoroughbred horses were bred to be race horses. They are fast indeed, but it doesnt mean they are the fastest.
No but they do pace trot and gallop.

Yes they are at long distances (derby) But quarter horses are the fastest horses at 1/4 mile sprints.
Some horses pace naturally. Standardbreds are raced as trotters, pacers (with hobbles) and free legged pacers. There are instances of pacing horses in a number of breeds, even stories of mustangs that were natural pacers. Some breeds of carriage horses were bred to pace.
Gallop is the horses fastest gait
Usually they nicker or whinny.Sometimes they pace the fence.
