The animation renders it a rather weak play style. The window of attack is rather small so riding a high maneuverability horse like the arabian could help.

No, the build is fine, everything is fine, except that Hafted blades on horseback are just horribly gimped, both due to some damage penalty, i guess and horribad animations.

Yep LHB off the horse is gimped, be prepared to be raped by any other decent cavalry player. I would suggest taking the arabian horse too, that maneuverability comes in handy (the horse will die in 1 or 2 shots from anything though).
