In Excess (foaled 1987 in Ireland – died 2013 in Bonsall, California) was a Thoroughbred racehorse who competed in England and in the United States.
In Excess was a bay horse bred in Ireland by his owner Ahmed Fustok. He was sired by Siberian Express, a multiple Group One winner in France. In Excess was conditioned for racing in England by Bill O'Gorman.
On his debut, In Excess won the October 5, 1989, EBF Sleeping Partner Maiden Stakes at Lingfield Park Racecourse. His next win came at age three in March 1990 in the Loddington Stakes at Leicester Racecourse, followed by a May 18 win in the 1990 King Charles II Stakes at Newmarket Racecourse. Purchased by American Jack J. Munari, In Excess was brought to race in the United States during the second half of 1990. In September, the colt scored an eight-length win in the Temperence Hill Handicap on the turf at Louisiana Downs, then was shipped to California, where he won the Volante and San Gabriel Handicaps.
On January 19, 1991, In Excess made his first start on dirt in the San Fernando Stakes at Santa Anita Park. Not only did he win, he set a new stakes record of 1:46 3/5 for one and one-eighth miles. [2] Sent to compete in dirt races at New York tracks, In Excess swept the Metropolitan Handicap in May, the Suburban Handicap in July in a track-record time of 1:58 1/5, the Whitney Handicap in August, and the Woodward Stakes in September in a very fast 1:46 1/5. His four wins in these major events was an accomplishment not seen since the great Kelso did it thirty years earlier in 1961. In Excess was a front-running horse and despite his win in the 1¼ mile Suburban Handicap, he raced best at distances of a mile to a mile and one eighth.
