For me its too much motion making it hard to look at the picture. Ideally, I think the rider and horse head should be in focus and the background blurred

I like that the horse is sharp -- wish that the rider was too. Otherwise, nice framing and tilt.

I don't think the angle adds anything to this shot.

Great use of shutter speed and panning! Oh and I love the tilt. Great combo! It is such a great feeling, when you nail so many variables in a single shot! Impressive...

sorry, but this doesn't work for me at all. the tilt is too extreme to do anything but make me feel like i'm hurtling towards a crash. very nice control on the pan, but not enough to overcome the uneasiness i'm getting.

I kind of wish the entire horse/jockey were not blurred (minus maybe the legs). Good panning though.
