Just a fun fact, horse piss absolutely damages the fuck out of aluminum parts of the aircraft.
I used to be an aircraft structures engineer, working primarily on cargo aircraft, and a few aircraft I've been on that transported horses have had significant corrosion damage to structures below the horses. If left to pool around metal for long enough, you can literally step on stringers and they'll crumble and deform.

Assuming these are horses being transported to race?
