She thought of a horse he had bought once. That must have been twenty years ago. Like all horses said to be salted, it had died of horse sickness. She had told him it wasn't salted. Anyone could see it was not salted. A salted horse had a look. You couldn't explain it. You just knew the look it had.

يبدو وصف الحصان إيجابياً في السياق، فقد مات بالتأكيد بسبب المرض بينما تموت الأحصنة غير الممرّسة عادة في حوادث بسبب وقوعها أو كسر فيها ومن المعروف أن كسر الحصان يؤدي إلى موته كما في المرجع التالي

A broken leg is still usually a death sentence for a horse.
في المرجع أدناه تعرّف الكلمة بما يلي

تضاف كميات من الملح لطعامه
من المعروف لدى مربي الخيول مدى حاجة هذه المخلوقات للملح للتعويض عن نسبة الأملاح التي تفقدها خلال عملية التعرق وللحفاظ على صحة جيدة

He was what is called a salted horse that is to say; he had survived the horse-sickness....
I think you have to paraphrase the concept here...it is a horse that had been treated with salt. I am not sure about my suggestion, however, it should be a long this line of explanation

: ألا ترى تناقضاً في النص إذا ما استخدمنا هذه الترجمة، لقد مات الحصان مثل كل الأحصنة "المعالجة بالملح" بسبب المرض؟ إن كانت كل الأحصنة التي "تعالج بالملح" تموت بسبب المرض فلمّ هذا الإجراء؟
