I don't wish to labour the focus point but this photo was 70mm, f5.6, 1/640th and 1000iso. (It's a low res jpg so the photo isn't as sharp as the original)
They were going hell for leather, so I had no time to wait to focus...I couldn't even see them coming.

I set focus to manual and prefocused on the fence, and fired as the horses head appeared.

I appreciate your subject may be more unpredictable in her line/position, but your depth of field and shutter speed should be sufficient to cover her movements. 

Don't quite understand why the action isn't being frozen and the background is sharp ....unless the focus point is behind the subject??
