Riding bonuses aren't that good. I would suggest only getting enough for the horse you want to use.

I run 8 riding and I love it, as a HA it helps get out of any trouble with my spirited courser.

Arabian WH is nice. but its pretty agile without the extra riding and even without looming.

This.

Especially for Arab Warhorses, you don't need any extra riding. Getting to 7 already means gimping yourself. The best (pure) cav build with arab is imo :

Level 30 (4 420 577 xp)

    Strength: 18
    Agility: 21
    Hit points: 53

    Skills to attributes: 8

    Ironflesh: 0
    Power Strike: 6
    Shield: 3
    Athletics: 0
    Riding: 7
    Horse Archery: 0
    Power Draw: 0
    Power Throw: 0
    Weapon Master: 7

    One Handed: 1
    Two Handed: 1
    Polearm: 163
    Archery: 1
    Crossbow: 1
    Throwing: 1


That much skill converting is unusual for cav builds but the 6th PS helps a lot.

i had both on my courser.  the speed bonus was not worth of mentioning,  the acceleration and mobility bonus was nice to have but not worth 1 less ps for me as a lancer
