Excessorized, the great-great granddaughter of Triple Crown Winner Secretariat, is a recent success story of Safe Haven Horse Rescue. Excessorized was sold off the track last year and left to starve. She was seized by Contra Costa Animal Control and Safe Haven Horse Rescue was chosen as her new home because of their love, compassion and knowledge in rehabilitating abused and neglected horses. Excessorized is available to meet media and horse lovers at the Western States Horse Expo in Sacramento (June 11-13th) at Barns by Harrahs Pavilion.
