I've bred four by him out of three different TB mares. They've all had lovely natures although one of them was sharp and quirky to ride, his full sister is a complete doddle, still in the same home from weaning and does everything,from fun rides, hunting and local showing. One I sold to my vet who broke him himself (done a great job too!) has had great fun hunting him over some very big country; his trainer says the horse should be eventing it has so much natural talent but sadly vet doesn't have time. The last I bought back and she is in foal to another Embla stallion to give her a long while to get over a mystery illness which knocked her for six not that you'd know now, she looks like a bullock! She is incredibly sweet but does have a bit of a buck in her which we think was man made from when she was originally sold as a three year old as she is the most placid of horses normally and works nicely afterwards.
If I had the chance, I would use Tex again; he has a fabulous nice nature and all the ones I've had have been naturally very athletic with good paces and good looking able to do any job you ask them. His stud fee is very reasonable for a graded stallion, such a shame he couldn't go out and continue his BSJA jumping to bring him more into the public eye, very under-rated IMV.

thank you, that's really helpful.

I had the quirky one that Maesfen bred. He was absolutely stunning to look at and was admired wherever we went.
He had a natural athleticism and talent. He jumped 1m10 with me with very little training, an older rider who's not that keen on jumping. He was a lovely horse who is very sadly missed by me .
Having seen pictures of Maefen's other Tex offspring, he does make some nicely put together horses.

I DID have one - sadly he had to be put down after a field accident left him with a hip problem with a poor prognosis. We had backed him and he was very quiet and kind (just VERY ugly!)

I also have a half sister to Bazaar's Texas. Her name is Bazaar's Brook - out of the same TB mare (Ward Brook) but by an RID stallion. She threw more to the TB - started eventing, then went hunting and was huntsman's horse at the High Peak for a couple of seasons before we got her. Fantastic jumper!! Our huntsman couldn't ride her (he's not good with mares) and Brook certainly had some 'attitude' - but she's had some very nice foals (I'm just backing one now.)

I have a 15.1hh mare by him who was a crossed with a welsh d! I know lots of people with horses by him and they all tend to be very quriky, but are very bold scopey jumpers! I've jumped upto 1.20 spreads with mine at home and she rarely touches a pole, and I compete british novice at the moment. In my opinion I would always get him crossed with something abit chunkier, or a mare thats super chilled out. But I do everything with my mare, hunt, dressage, jump, fun rides, I just have to mind the bronking fits and strange field behaviour! Other good thing about him crossed with a lightweight cob, is that they are very hardy (live out in winter) and you can still compete to high levels.

I have a 1 year old gelding by Bazaars Texas and out of a TBx, I've had him since October 2010 and he is very affectionate when he wants to be and very placid apart from time to time when he has his stroppy days and wont be lead anywhere without rearing, striking out and bolting. I've bought him a be nice halter to see if that helps his stroppy days but hes taken to knocking me over a couple of times to try and get away from me. However when he has his nice head on he is very nice and loving, he is incredibly brave and doesnt seem to be scared of anything!! He's growing very fast as at the moment he stands at about 15.1hh when his Dam was 16.1! His movements are very elegant and bouncy and looks to have alot of potential in dressage and jumping as he clears the paddock fencing from a stand still!!

I've known 3, all out of different dams (don't know the dams).
All were nice sweet people on the ground, all were decidely average to look at and in their way of going, both on the flat and over a fence. In general reasonable riding club types. One was quite a backwards/nappy cow and owner got rid pretty quick, the other two were rideable.

I have a coloured colt by Bazaars Texas this year out of a TB mare. He is lovely! Moves really well and so far has a lovely temperament.
I used Bazaars Texas as a friend has 2 or 3 horses by him - all coloured which are all talented and very easy to do. The one mare you would describe as busy but not problematic in anyway.
I'm very pleased with mine.
