Horses that are bred for speed, like Quarter Horses and Thoroughbreds, can reach 40 mph for short periods of time. I would say the average fro horses overall is about 33-35 mph... it really depends on the horse. I've seen Thoroughbreds only get to 20 and I've ridden my Paint up to about 43.
A walk is generally about 2-5 mph, a trot 5-8, and a canter should be between 15-20. A hand-gallop could be anywhere from 20-30, and a full-out-hang-on-for-your-life gallop could be anything higher than that
Quarter horses have been clocked at speed of 55 mph over short distances! They are the fastest horse breed. Thoroughbreds only reach speeds of 40mph, and other breeds can only go to 25-30mph.
The Quarter Horse has been clocked at 55mph and is the fastest horse over short distances.
There are alot of world records and for the fastest horses. I read about one name Rydsky's Hamblitonian. He had a great great great great grandfoal and she ran with Greyhound. I would think that Greyhound was the fastest but im not sure.

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.
