Genetics.
Both dogs are "playing" with the horse.
The collie goes for the heels, barks and wants to drive. Basically moving or holding the animal by intimidation, pressure of its presence, but not a lot of contact. A lot of noise and not a big chance of the animal being killed. Typical herding dog behavior.
The pitbull goes for the face, throat. Just like a gripper bred bulldog type would do if it was baiting or holding an animal for the butcher to slaugher. This pit is obviously not seriously trying to atack the horse, but there's a fine line between playing turning into something more serious. I wouldn't be surprised if this poor horse ends up getting it's nose severly damaged by the pit's play one day or if this play turned into a full on mauling.
