it really depends on how strong the horse is, what breed it is, etc... if the horse is light but weak it wont run very fast...but if it is light and strong then it will. also...thoroughbreds usually run faster than warmbloods etc. so generally speaking, yes. but theres alot more than weight that affects how fast a horse runs.

It all depends on the surface that he is running on. And also if he is used to going without shoes. Horses that never get shoes have tougher feet. A horse that wears shoes all the time will have more sensative feet once the shoes are removed. Some horses even limp a little after having their shoes pulled until their feet get used to being barefoot.
