I like it! A little unfortunate that the horse on the right is cut in half though. Do you have any other shots?

very very nice! I like the way the horses' bodies and riders are sharp, but the legs are blurred with the motion. Nice shot!

I like it a lot. You've done a great job on the panning and managed to keep most of the horse and rider focused, which as anyone who's tried panning will tell you is difficult at best.

I agree that it would have been nice to have the rightmost horse in frame, without it, it almost looks like a detail of a larger picture. Unfortunately, I don't think you could crop or paint it out.

A great shot with a difficult method!
