Aren't they smaller and slower, more suited for distance?
When I was a kid and was with my folks overseas we went to races that were only Arabian horses. Many races were 2 miles. They said they couldn't use starting gates because of their temperament, so they had them gather behind a rope between 2 poles. When the rope was jerked up the horses took off.
This was late 60's, I'm sure there's been advancements.
