Anecdotally, there is some support:

I could not find any really good numbers on the molecular makeup of
equine manure in general, except that it is about 50 percent carbon and
1-2 percent nitrogen. There is also a bit of ammonia (or common
products that form it), some phosphates and trace metals. Relatively
high in water content to start, but you would be getting it once that
it gone already. I would give it a shot and see what it yields. I
suspect it will work like any other fine aggregate and increase
density / weight and reduce water intake of the cured "excrete".
<groan> That term is just horrid.
