The Jockey Club gives all Thoroughbreds in the northern Hemisphere the birthday of January first and in the southern hemisphere the birthday of September first of their birth year to make it easier to sort the horses into races. They still have their actual birthdays written onto their registration records but they just use a general birthday to make things easier.
Thoroughbred horses in the Northern Hemisphere are considered to have the same birthday because they all celebrate their birthday on January 1st regardless of their actual birth date. This standardizes the age calculation for competition and breeding purposes within the industry.
Because thoroughbreds are raced according to age (IE- the Kentucky Derby is a race for 3 year olds), they all have the same "birthday" of January 1st of the year they were born in. This alleviates confusion when entering horses in races since all horses born in a certain year are eligable for the races for their age group. For example, all horses born in 2010 will race as a 2 year old in 2012 in any 2yr old race regardless of when they were born in 2010.
Most breeders will try to breed so their foals are born as close to January 1st (but not before) as possible so they are not handicapped when its time to race. If a horse is born on 31 Dec it is automatically a year old the next day and there for will technically be a year younger than the other horses it will race against as a 2 and 3 year old. This is not desirable in racehorses.
Thoroughbred horses participate in the Grand National race. These horses are specially bred for racing and are highly trained athletes.

Kangaroos, like all wild animals, do not celebrate their birthday. Celebrating birthdays is a human invention, and generally reserved for people, domestic pets and thoroughbred horses. Kangaroos are unaware of their birthday, and they have more important things to worry about, such as survival.

The genus and species for Thoroughbred is the same for all modern horses, Equus Caballus.Some sites consider the breed to be a subspecies, which would make the Thoroughbred: Equus Caballus thoroughbred.
