Given the cold winter...leaf mulch and horse manure from Autumn ...ready to use?

[moola]

Hello there - sorry I haven't been on for ages. Been really caught up with ...well - everything! Things have calmed down and now I finally have time to get back on track..

I've 3 loads of Autumn leaves composting and a field full of horse poo. Given that we have had a silly cold winter I am wondering whether either will be useable on raised beds - I was hoping to work it into fairly good existing soil this week.

The poo is light coloured and certainly dry, the leaves broken down at some levels but not all.

I'm not intending to use the poop for root crops
Kind thanks

The leaves takes 12-18 months to be usable. They shouldn't resemble leaves at all when it's ready, but black moist crumbly soil.

Ditto manure: it shouldn't look like manure any more.
