It's very nice, but because I don't see even the smallest suggestion that the horse actually owns a set of rear legs, in my crazy mind, I keep thinking it looks like a reversed-Centaur, ie, horse in front, man in back, instead of the opposite. 

Normally, I would say, just laugh and forget about it, but it's odd enough looking that I think you should change it just enough to show a bit of the horse's rear legs.

It's hard to find photos of people standing that close to the rear of a horse, but I think you almost always see some trace of the horse's legs in back of the person, e.g.,
