I have a chance to get as much horse manure as I want. My garden dearly needs a boost but I have never heard of anyone using horse manure just cow and sheep.
Is it good for the garden?

Its great - but! - it requires about 6 months to cure or it will burn your plants. If you have a place you can put it for awhile, go for it. The delay time will also allow you to watch for, and deal with, unwanted volunteers, such as johnson grass and other things that you don't want in your flowers.
