Nice macro of the eye. The focal lie we can see completely vertical is kinda interesting. Not sure why you call this Angel Eye, unless the horses name is Angel or you are that into horses. Which not everyone is. For me, its nice but does nothing for me.

This has an interesting solemn and calm atmosphere about it. The single, dark horse eye serves as a nice focal point, and I like the few coarse hairs that are draped across. I like this, but I think it would fare much better in a challenge more associated with the subject matter than a FS, which demands "wow" factor to score high. Great use of DoF, and I think you've succeeded in this photo.
