Thoroughbred Horse

Thoroughbred horses are best known for their use in horse racing. Although the term "thoroughbred" can refer to any purebred horse, it technically only refers to the Thoroughbred breed. Thoroughbred horses are "hot-blooded" horses known for their agility, speed, and spirit.

Most children have fantasized about owning a pony, but owning a thoroughbred racing horse is an entirely different story. Their care, like that of most horses, is not easy. They require 15 to 20 pounds of clean grass per day, and just thinking about cleaning up after them is exhausting. As a result, caring for one of these energetic horses can feel like a full-time job.

A good thoroughbred can cost between $100,000 and $300,000 dollars. However, one horse named Green Monkey set a new record for the most expensive pets. Because he was a legend, he was sold for $16,000,000. He ran an eighth of a mile in 9.8 seconds during his first race. As a result, the price of these horses can vary depending on their skill level.
