I am not familiar with Jive Magic, but am wondering - how much breeding has Regardez Moi done? Hasn’t he been primarily a competition horse?
Perhaps the Australian folks on this form can help answer your questions.
Beauty101 you’re asking a primarily US and European BB about stallions that have resided, competed, and bred the vast majority of their lives in Australia. Most COTHers would not have heard of these horses.

I know that Silva Martin had a Jive Magic son (the story of how she acquired him was pretty funny too!) that she has going at GP and he is stunning!! You can see some video of him if you search Youtube for Jeff the Chef. He is also HUGE – 17.3-18hh.
I have not seen Regardez Moi offspring, so no comment on him. But I like the horses Heath Ryan produces in general!
Jive Magic’s can be a bit of a hit or miss temperament wise. They’re either a bit nuts or pretty quiet! There doesn’t tend to be too much in-between with him. He really does need a good mare line to throw with. Some of the F line horses he’s crossed with are really nice.
Regardez Moi throws temperament, trainability but not the flashiest horses in the world. In saying that most of his youngsters only tend to shine once they start hitting FEI levels.
