If your horses are not fed weedy hay it is not a problem. I spread all of my horse manure back on my hay fields and mulch it down. I do not have a weed problem in my hay field. If you buy your hay I guess you wouldn't know until the weeds started coming up. My horses are so picky with their hay I doubt they even eat a weed with seeds. Even with my feeders they sort out the alfalfa first and only eat some of the grass. I put a bale of mostly grass hay in the feeder last week and three mares stood there all day long looking for what alfalfa was in it and dropped the grass on the ground. A bale lasts them three days normally but that one was gone in one. Put a bale of mostly alfalfa in and they were as happy as a fly on a road apple and it lasted three days. Like most horses they are spoiled brats. However when I bed the shelter with straw Pearl helps brake up the straw flakes with her hoof while I am shaking it out with a fork. The other two just stand and watch.
All need to know information above if your thinking about fertilizing with horse road apples. (:^D

The year was about 1967 and my father found a good used Ford 601 tractor to use on the farm instead of "Bob", our old mule. Now my grandfather had had this mule since the mid 40's and he was getting some age on him. S
