I think that you did a great job capturing this image, and it should have placed much higher than it did.

It amazes me that 80 people thought it was only an average shot for this place, and 26 actually voted it below average! It just goes to show that this place has a LOT more frikkin idiots than it needs.

Is it me or does the horse look like it's smiling? Nice capture.

Very nice job on this, great focus on the horses face, and near perfect on the girls.

This shot is all about motion. Excellent motion capture. You really nailed the concentration on both rider and horse, and show how much of this kind of sport is true teamwork. Focus seems a bit sharper on the horse than the girl. I would guess that's an autofocus issue. Might be worth playing around a bit in manual mode to see if you can get a sharper image? 9
