Fresh Horse manure

I have just been given 20 sacks of fairly fresh Horse manure.
1) If I store it in an old compost bin. Should I put some plastic on the bottom
to stop the moisture leeching out.
2) Should I mix it with anything such as Grass Clipping etc
I do not intend using it until the Spring Time.
Thanks

Manure is high in Nitrogen, as are grass clippings, Wood chippings are high in carbon, so they're better . If you can layer it up, lasagne style, that's perfect
And my wife loves Lasagne. She can Help !!!!
