Assuming they're both still running by then, how do you see Texas playing out? This question also requires you to guess how they did in the first few primary states, since momentum is a big factor.

I think it's very unlikely they're both still running by the time we get to Texas.  There's too much overlap in the type of moderate voters both candidates aim to appeal to.  Castro is in an especially weak position, sandwiched between Beto and Booker.  I anticipate that by the time we've made it to New Hampshire Beto will have absorbed most of the voters who at one point supported Castro, Biden, Klobuchar, and Gillibrand.  On the other end of the electorate, Kamala will have claimed the voters who at one point supported Booker, Warren, and Sanders.  I think it's going to come down to a Beto vs. Kamala race, and it will probably happen before we get to Texas.

Beto would steamroll Castro. Hell, Castro may not even still be in the race at that point.
