Saturated fats. do they make the difference?
Corn oil and soybean oil have the exact same amount of calories and fat, but soybean oil has more SATURATED fat and less polyunsaturated and monounsaturated.
I put corn oil in my horse’s feed for calories, to keep weight on them, so I wanna go with the one that will add the most fat.
Is saturated fat fattier? Or does it not matter since they have the same amount of total fat?

Soy has been implicated in causing problems with thyroid health, so I have major problems recommending it. Saturated fat is more stable, polyunsaturated turns rancid faster & in humans there is a need to balance the Omega 6 fatty acids (found in polyunsaturated) with Omega 3 fatty acids. I don’t know about fats for horses, but the fats I would use for myself are coconut oil & rice bran oil.
I highly suggest you read Folk Medicine: A New England Almanac of Natural Health Care from a Noted Vermont Country Doctor by D. C. Jarvis. Although he wasn’t a vet he studied animal health, transforming sickly herds into healthy animals with dietary supplementation & equating the same principles to human health. He highly recommended for animals (& humans) raw Apple Cider Vinegar & kelp.
