Just wanted to know whether I am on the right track, or if i could be getting noticably more from my setup, and improve my technique.
I noticed a little more detail in the horse head region with the extra stretch, but then the sky seems too light for my taste, so left it as it is.
You are right about the flattener though, i was hoping to use a focal reducer to speed the system up a bit, but there goes that i suppose
I am no refractor expert, but I think most "focal reducers" are reducer/flattener combination, so using one should clear up the field curvature aswell.

I didn't make the sky darker because there is uneven illumination in the image in the bottom right so darkening it too much clips that section, I think your biggest improvements would be a flattener of some sort.
