Timing, very good, just a fraction sooner is ideal, just before the leading foreleg is perfectly straight.
Better if you waited until it was in the arena so the rail would be on the other side of the horse.
Background, not the worst I've seen but could be much better. Try using a smaller DOF (f4) to help blur the background. Exposure, perfect! The horse itself (not under your control) hollow in the back, slightly heavy on the forehand. While in the popular idea of frame and looks pretty good in motion it's not true collection. (pics don't lie!!)
