This is Fighter archetype designes specifically around riding a mount.
Please tell me what you think along with suggestions on how to make it better

Fighter: Knight

Skilled Rider: at 3rd level you gain Mounted Combatant feat. If you already have this feat you may pick a new one.
Swift mounting: at 3rd level If you are not wearing heavy armour it does not cost any movement to get on your mount. If you are wearing heavy armour mounting requires you to spend 5ft of movement instead of half of your speed. Also you gain advantage on saving throws against you being thrown off your mount.

Superior charge: at 7th level you have advantage on melee attack rolls against any unmounted creature that is the same size or smaller than your mount. You add 1d6 to the damage. This damage increses to 2d6 at 10th level, 3d6 at 15th level and 4d6 at 18th level.

Terrifying charge: at 10th level when you spend at least 20ft of your movement riding towards an enemy and then strike it with a melee attack your target must make a Wisdom saving throw against DC (10 + Your Intimidation score) or be frightened until the start of your next turn.
Enemy must see you moving towards it for at least 20ft of your movement.

Ride-by: at 15th level if you spend at least 10ft of movement before you perform a melee attack you may take Disengage action as a free action. In order for this feature to work you must make no more than 1 melee attack.

Over-ride: at 18th level you gain ability to ride over your enemies. While you are on your mount you may enter spaces of enemies that are smaller size category than your mount. An enemy must pass a Dexterity saving throw to get out of the way. The DC for this save depends on the speed of your mount. On a failed save enemy takes 4d10 points of bludgeoning damage. After this saving throw you must leave enemies space. To perform this action you must have enough movement to move into enemys swuare and exit it.
Creature speed DC
0-30ft 9
31-40ft 11
41-50ft 13
51-60ft 15

There is a Homebrew subforum that you should post this in instead of here.

On the topic of critique, eh, its alright. There's an official Unearthed Arcana Cavalier subclass for Fighters that's pretty much the same thing.
