But it's too far from me, someone is going to be awfully lucky in South Austin.

You should note that horse manure, beside being quite weak compared to others, it is really, really (like really) full of eager weed seeds. Applying it as is on your garden is not a good idea.

True, but this is composted down. Isn't that the cure to get rid of the weed seeds?

hot composting will dramatically reduce seeds yes. Personally when I do get some horse manure I use it to make my compost kick off extra hot!. So there is that too.
