Equine Advantage specialist Troy Stansbury helps with Ravens feed program. AND THEN I RIDE RAVEN BAREBACK while Karen is not around! equineadvantage.com
Great work with Raven! He does appear to have some PRE blood. Very wise to remove the spurs 😉 The bald face mare may be slow to mature? Have a Chex baby who I thought would end up being a pony. Until end of 4th year and into 5th when she had a growth spurt and is now 15.1.😃
Wow he is a fantastic mover, you can see the Spanish ancestry. Love seeing what a great job you're doing with him. The amount of trust Raven has now even with a stranger shows that you treat your horses with kindness even when the camera isn't on. ❤
Thoroughly enjoying watching Raven's progress. He is looking fabulous and he certainly trusts you. It is going to be a good experience for you as well I think.
What a difference in Raven! It is so nice to see the calm, relaxed eye, and him seeking scratches and attention, not shying away. Even his ears are showing relaxation and listening. I like how the gentleman said to use his grain allotment as a treat. I know you are tired of hearing me say this but it's a great use of a reward and positive reinforcement for him too when you are training (which is always). Looks like you are doing an amazing job with him.
I have a mustang only been ridden a handful of times. She and are going slow as we should. My husband must have thought he was you cause he jumped on, except my mare jumped him right off 🤣 love the videos, you're doing an awesome job as you have always done
Just as I predicted, you both handled that like champs! The ground work and the relationship building are where its at. He came off that trailer as "untouched" and now you can see the difference in his eye. My son and I love watching these videos. Cool project for a talented top shelf trainer!
Hi Matt, Raven is doing awesome to me, looking lovely to, I think you will going to do great thinks with him, loved the small horse, I hope she will get bigger. 🙋🏻♀️🌹🤗😁💪🏻👍🏻👊🏻 Roos
Matt what a great goal having Raven as your saddle horse. Having worked and started Mustangs for several years,I know when you have their trust they will go to the end of the world for you. Have fun and stay safe! Love watching your videos.
Hi again MATT I AM SOOO HAPPY!! Even after the explosive trailer event Raven gave you a chance. And thankfully you're giving him one. Watching his eyes and body language he was fixed on you and trying to give and meet you to learning from you. He can trust you and you're finding you're beginning to trust him! Especially with all the weight bearing you gave him and finally letting you get on him all the times with no bad reaction. He wants to learn and I truly believe you two will become a great team together and I'm pretty sure he will become something quite special to you in a one of a kind way. After all he's a MUSTANG... Thx for getting this vid out quickly as so many have been waiting with great anticipation. Your great teaching/training skills will surely give you a differently special success this time. Onward you go and I can hardly wait for the updates. Enjoy...
Thank you Matt from Australia♥️💙 I’m in hospital with a chest infection (not Covid lol 😝) & your videos have really cheered me up as always. Raven looks wonderful, he is really growing confidence. My dad has always said feed the work; don’t work the feed. Edited to add: Raven is well conformed & he is a beautiful mover
Raven really trusts you!! Can’t wait to follow all your plans. I do want to try the low starch feed for my mini with IR and my riding horse. Thank you!!
Awesome job, Raven and Matt!! Love it! (Raven really seems to like Ryan, too!) The yearlings are adorable and so shiny in the sun. Could you talk a bit about the pasture/turn-out situation at the ranch? Do Raven and friends get turned out at all during the day, or do you have to be really careful with daytime pasture time with the hot weather there? (East-coaster here, so truly wondering.) Can't wait for the next Raven video!
I love Raven! He is such a pretty mover and you can tell he has a lot of try. Love mustangs and their heart! He looks ready to be broke 😊 he trusts you
I think it’s nice when riding is your job to have one horse that you can play with and not worry about “messing them up”. He can be your trail ride, going bareback around the farm, doing silly stuff, horse.
Oh come on, many of us would have gotten on Raven without all the hemming and hawing. But, Matt Mills would be more embarrassed to be bucked off than I would be.
I appreciate your comment about being careful. I’m very aware and f a hoses strength and speed. It would take months for me to trust myself at that level.
Well would you just look at Ol Jug Head!! Matt you are an amazing horseman!! I live in Tennessee and would absolutely love to come to KY for the Road to the Horse. Maybe I could meet Jug Head in person. Good luck at the competition!!!
Raven is Ready to learn more.. Raven is waiting on you Matt… Mustang can still learn fast too,I know I’ve had many mustang’s.They also won’t back down they have big hearts. Enjoy Raven & I’d like to see him in Kentucky.. That would be Awesome For Raven🙏🏽👌🏽 Great Video Once Again. I was starting to wonder bout Raven. His looking good as well
I’d love to take my FEI event horses for a week of ground work with Matt… that would be so cool. Just to learn how to work with them in a different way.
I love seeing ravens progress. Now I need to get better at bareback it’s just soo hard for me!!! I am over here having trouble riding Noble bareback, your over here riding Raven bareback
Good job with Raven. Can't wait to see what you do next with him. PS. It's cool that you train for a living, and you're choosing to train one for fun too.
Love these videos u have done a lot with him good job I just trained a horse that got traumatized as a Young horse and I trained him and now he is like a kids horse 🤣🤣
Raven looks nice now that he gets better food and he starts to relax a bit. You can see he's ready to work, he WANTS to work for you. I can't wait to see how he looks once you get some good grain and nutrients in him and he starts to develop some muscle. Reining probably isn't for him but have you thought about maybe trying some Ranch Riding with him? It has some Reining elements to it but it's not as strenuous on the horse. I think he could be great there, he sure can move!
I didn't follow your videos regularly, so I don't know whether it has been said or not, but I believe this mustang has Andalusian blood in him. The head, the crest line and the neck tied high on his shoulders say Andalusian. If he turns white or gray by the time is seven, here you are.
Raven was said to be around 8 so I'd guess he'll stay black. But you're right, looking at his head and neck and his hind end and the way he moves, he definitely looks like old Spanish blood. Not purebred of course, but a good amount of it. He will look amazing once he puts some weight and muscle on!
“Maybe my quarter ran out.” That gave me a good giggle! 😂
That was funny!!
Great work with Raven! He does appear to have some PRE blood. Very wise to remove the spurs 😉 The bald face mare may be slow to mature? Have a Chex baby who I thought would end up being a pony. Until end of 4th year and into 5th when she had a growth spurt and is now 15.1.😃

Love Raven. Can’t wait to see more
I love your videos. Believe it or not I feel like I learn something from you and take it into my own riding! Thank you!
Man what a beautiful animal that Raven is Love to watch you show the attention to him Well done Thanks
Love this video. Raven is awesome 👌
I have a mustang only been ridden a handful of times. She and are going slow as we should. My husband must have thought he was you cause he jumped on, except my mare jumped him right off 🤣 love the videos, you're doing an awesome job as you have always done
So great to see how well Raven is doing I have been wondering if you still had him. He looks great!
I love how much attention raven wants! Gah he’s amazing. I can’t wait to see y’all’s progress! Best of wishes!!

WOW! I’m impressed👏🏻🥰
Hahaha. Thx!
I love your editing sounds, the record scratching when Raven put his back up a little. He's beautiful and seems like a good boi. Great work.
A sweet colt very king eye and is always watching you so think you got a great prospec
Awww he loves you! I see a dressage horse in the making!😍
Raven is doing great. Looks like he's just unsure. And I like that bay yearling.
Ugh I love Raven 😩 😍
He’s a pretty cool dude!

Yayyy! I've been missing the "mustang Matt " series.
Thank you Matt from Australia♥️💙 I’m in hospital with a chest infection (not Covid lol 😝) & your videos have really cheered me up as always. Raven looks wonderful, he is really growing confidence. My dad has always said feed the work; don’t work the feed.

He has a kind eye and it looks like he enjoys learning. What a good find. The real question is what was Karen’s reaction to this?
This was another great video!! I was cheering you on to throw your leg over!! The next question is “What did Karen say?!” 🤣⚡️
Thanks for watching! Karen just rolled her eyes! 🤣
Hey there Matt,
Watched a lot of your videos, (1st time chiming in). Great job with Raven and teaching horsemanship, keep up the great work!
LOL! Matt trying to talk himself into and out of hopping on. Personally I think you two make a great pair. Another point for the mustang. Sweet!
Awesome job, Raven and Matt!! Love it! (Raven really seems to like Ryan, too!) The yearlings are adorable and so shiny in the sun. Could you talk a bit about the pasture/turn-out situation at the ranch? Do Raven and friends get turned out at all during the day, or do you have to be really careful with daytime pasture time with the hot weather there? (East-coaster here, so truly wondering.)

I love Raven! He is such a pretty mover and you can tell he has a lot of try. Love mustangs and their heart! He looks ready to be broke 😊 he trusts you
Love it. He’s Going to be so much fun
I think it’s nice when riding is your job to have one horse that you can play with and not worry about “messing them up”. He can be your trail ride, going bareback around the farm, doing silly stuff, horse.
NEver really had that!
1st time I heard a man say this feels like a bad idea before doing bad idea! 😂
Beautiful horses...wow...Is that blue eyed filly in stall deaf by chance? Such a cutie💓
Oh come on, many of us would have gotten on Raven without all the hemming and hawing. But, Matt Mills would be more embarrassed to be bucked off than I would be.
That’s where you’re wrong. I couldn’t care less about being embarrassed! It’s more about being cautious. I Do have a day job. 😎〽️
Love the update. Looking forward to seeing the progress.
No fear... Raven got some float!👍🏻🤠💪🏻
I appreciate your comment about being careful. I’m very aware and f a hoses strength and speed. It would take months for me to trust myself at that level.
Hi
Looking good Raven great job ❤❤👍
Awesome

Well would you just look at Ol Jug Head!! Matt you are an amazing horseman!! I live in Tennessee and would absolutely love to come to KY for the Road to the Horse. Maybe I could meet Jug Head in person. Good luck at the competition!!!

Wow, Raven has come along way since you picked him up. Brave to jump bareback !
One of the best in the game! ❤️
Raven moves just like my mustang mare
Raven is Ready to learn more..
Raven is waiting on you Matt…
Mustang can still learn fast too,I know I’ve had many mustang’s.They also won’t back down they have big hearts.
Enjoy Raven & I’d like to see him in Kentucky..
That would be Awesome For Raven🙏🏽👌🏽
Great Video Once Again.
I was starting to wonder bout Raven.
His looking good as well
Omg 😱 if you ever sell Raven, please let me be the first to buy him!!! I love him. He is exactly what I’m looking for!! He is gorgeous.
I’d love to take my FEI event horses for a week of ground work with Matt… that would be so cool. Just to learn how to work with them in a different way.
I’m always at how much ground work improves everything
I love seeing ravens progress. Now I need to get better at bareback it’s just soo hard for me!!!
I am over here having trouble riding Noble bareback, your over here riding Raven bareback

Nice work. Greetings from Long Beach Ca.
I think ravens beautiful diamond in the rough you were lucky to find them
You’re absolutely right!

I think he could be great there, he sure can move!
I personally see a dressage pony 💓
👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Hoping to see how Raven is doing now.

Not purebred of course, but a good amount of it. He will look amazing once he puts some weight and muscle on!
Lookin at his head he looks like he probably has alot of lusitano ancestry!
He looks Spanish. Pretty boy!
He has a kind eye ,but wary like my blue valentine/hancock filly. She acks like him.
Does the NRHA allow you to run bitless? (I know AQHA doesn't) That would be awesome if you showed horse in a bitless bridle!!!!
When are they airing the Last Cowboy?
So when is this event in Kentucky??
be careful giving grain to Mustangs!
More videos on raven plz
