This largely depends on the breed of the horse, the lineage of the horse, the training of the horse, the health of the horse, and the circumstances surrounding why they are running, and if they are carrying anything.

  1. it depends on the breed of the horse, the weather, how well looked after the horse is, its age and how it is trained. on average a young well looked after horse in cool weather can run at a high gallop for a maximum time of a couple of minutes but you never work a horse hard without wiping it down thoroughly afterwards
