The words I’ve always been told “ a good stallion, makes a damn amazing gelding” Nobody can deny a flashy, talented, and sweet gelding! Happy to see you happy with him Matt! He’s definitely a special colt, I’ll be excited to see y’all run ( if y’all get too...stupid corona )

[@mattmillsreining1]

Karissa Equine NO DOUBT! Let’s all hope it safely gets back to normal soon! 👊🏾💯〽️

[@MMHorsemanship]

I love that you're preaching about gelding a horse when they aren't shaping up to be a well-rounded stallion which includes temperment! You are certainly right. I don't think we do it enough these days in reining.

[@mattmillsreining1]

Marissa Mendoza for sure! It’s just So much better for the horse! 💪🏾〽️

[@TheVodec]

I have a buddy of mine who swears by the competitive nature of stallions. Those horses are for jousting though and not reigning. They get into it just like we do. Chomping at the bit and charging down the lane ready to jump on someone like a spider monkey. It takes a special kind of horse to want to engage someone with a lance, spear or a big old club. I think that herd animals have to love you to be willing to wade into battle with ya. Anyways, glad to see that beautiful horse feeling better.

A month ago I got my 10 year stallion gelded and he’s so much sweeter and calmer. Now I got to train him since he’s never been broke to ride.

[@mattmillsreining1]

Brittany Marie Purvis, well it damn sure ought to be easier to get that done now. Good job!! 💪🏾💯〽️

[@annahalko-angemi]

Is there gonna be Season 2 of the show for the Run for a Million? That was really good!

[@mattmillsreining1]

Anna Halko-Angemi there was supposed to be! Depends on when this quarantine stuff gets lifted. 🤞🏾🤞🏾〽️

[@annahalko-angemi]

@@mattmillsreining1 Awesome! Thank you!

[@raymundoiglesias6674]

Beautiful horse 🐎🐎

[@mattmillsreining1]

Raymundo Iglesias thanks! Definitely very unique! I love him too! 🤙🏾💯〽️

[@calin7017]

I wish they make a second season of "Run for a million". And Matt, please make more videos for those of us damned with a quaratine and a winter that lags. Thanks.

[@mattmillsreining1]

Calin, 2nd season was in the works until all of this shut down stuff! More videos definitely coming! Thanks for watching! 😎

[@user-bi5if1ip6t]

Would Love to see Carmine in Vegas. Nice nice horse

[@mattmillsreining1]

Jason French, thanks man. I hope so too! 💪🏾💯〽️

[@Aliee-LRSporthorses]

Takes a spectacular stallion to make a good gelding...

[@mattmillsreining1]

Lightning Equus, AMEN to that! 😎💯〽️

[@madisinraines9126]

Can you guys make a video showing how you care for your manes and tails?? That would much appreciated! TIA

[@mattmillsreining1]

madisin raines, did an Instagram live a few days ago. I talked a little bit about what we do on those manes!

[@Chaos_Feyre]

Funny, I raised a few stallions and they were calm as could be. First rides were bareback! My current filly and my old gelding had more fire, but each horse is different.

[@mattmillsreining1]

Sara Anonymous, couldn’t agree more with that they are all different. JUST LIKE PEOPLE!

[@estherhagenouw9308]

Just watch some video's back, o i love carmine he is so Beautyfull, how big is that horse? just courieus

[@jessegarcilazo864]

Matt, will reply once he’s not busy he replied to me thanks Matt and hope to see more videos in KZbin

[@mattmillsreining1]

What response did I miss ? More vids coming for sure!

[@kutterbeavers9941]

He's Looking great

[@mattmillsreining1]

Kutter Beavers, thanks a lot! He’s so fun!

[@jennifercafecafe1481]

I had a young colt, I half gelded him, he was easier to handle and he kept his "stallion" personality, stature etc, but easier to work with

[@mattmillsreining1]

Jennifer Cafe Cafe, I haven’t one yet that was worse for it!

[@itsemilee1502]

Half gelded?

[@nannettepurcell5364]

Such beauty

[@mattmillsreining1]

Nannette Purcell, Thanks! I feel so fortunate to have him!

[@daironrojashernandez8008]

Muy bien

[@mattmillsreining1]

Dairon Rojas Hernandez, muchas gracías! 😎

[@bearythoughts1849]

Oh dear poor man but for the best he will be a lot happier now. Have you ever had a well behaved gentle stallion? Is he an Andalusian he has that look about him especially his head.

[@Emlufv]

He's a quarter horse

[@mattmillsreining1]

Clare Tollerton, definitely a lot happier! And Yes! I have quite a few well behaved stallions! 💪🏾💯〽️

[@aschleysilva5268]

Amo seu canal

[@alphagirl547]

Have you seen Matt Harnake’s Spanish stallions?

[@mattmillsreining1]

I haven’t seen them.

[@Nana-64-o9t]

Why do you keep the tails up in a wrap? I am just wondering.

[@mattmillsreining1]

So whey they do the sliding stops they don't get so dirty!!

[@emilylipsitz]

How many horses do you own?

[@letfreedomring6273]

Show us the turnout time I would like to see that

[@mattmillsreining1]

Lela Flanery-Heineken, Keep watching! I will try to let you guys get a look at a little of everything we get to do!! 💪🏾😎〽️

[@leilawitherspoon503]

What coat color is he ?

[@elisabethcase445]

Cremello paint 🤍

[@lorimitchell9025]

What bit are you using

[@mattmillsreining1]

That’s a medium port made by Kerry Kelley

[@malinabest4331]

Who is the father of Carmine ?

[@nelsonlugo8210]

What a shame to geld him

[@mattmillsreining1]

Nelson Lugo, didn’t want to! But we tried everything. He was begging for it. And now I wish I had of done it sooner!

[@DoubleDogDare54]

Take off the nuts and they are more interested in grass than @$$. "Stallion" is a category that should be reserved just for the very best males, not the numerous gee-he's-really-nice horses.

[@dreeandbill]

Disliked this from the start. Yanked the horse's head about.....bit is too high. Why do you ride with the head so low? That causes loads of problems in horses.....but I guess the way you went on and on about money....the money is more important than the horse. That's the impression this video gives and it's sad.

[@devynt7702]

A lot of quarter horses are bred to have a lower natural headset. Forcing a head down yes can be bad for the horse, but if it's their natural head set there is nothing wrong with a low head. It sounds like he cares about the horse, hence why he gelded him when he realized that the horse wouldn't do well as a stud. If he cared only about money he could leave him as a stud and stud him out.

[@mattmillsreining1]

MysteriousRoads, you hit the nail in the head!!! THANK YOU! 🙏👍🏾👍🏾〽️

[@kryptonarie6367]

Yes, why would someone supposedly so knowledgeable bridle the horse and stretch his mouth back against a relaxed bit? I also watched one of your more recent videos, an update about a bald face horse named Bluey. You're a 203 pound man (looked it up), and you said Bluey had grown several inches and put on an additional 200 pounds since you last rode him, and then you said he was only a two year old!!! The only reason for someone your size, to ride young horses with an immature muscleskeletal systems, at two year olds (doing hard stops and ect.-reining), is money.

[@mattmillsreining1]

Thanks for watching my videos!
