I had beef cattle for a number of years and used a single wire with the hottest charger I could find with good success. If I were to do it over I would use high tensile. I don't see the need for so many strands except that the fencing companies want to sell more wire. I found that with multiple strands I had to trim under the fence. With single wire the cows trimmed under the fence.
With horses it depends what breed you have. High strung horses are stupid around an electric fence. I have Morgans and they learned to respect the fence quickly and I have no problems.
