FGH 6/ PAL 8/CW: Cavelier 6

At first level I take the Wild Cohort Feat

http://www.wizards.com/default.asp?x=dnd/re/20031118a

I turn it into my mount as a paladin, I continue to use that mount after I get Special mount at 5th level Paladin, after a while I take the BOED:Celestial Mount feat. Cavelier levels stack with paladin special mount. So at level 20 I have a mount with

Wild Cohort L20: Bonus HD: +11, Nat Armor: +11, Str: +5, Dex: +5, Improved Evasion
Special Mount L14: Bonus HD: +6, Nat Armor: +10, Str: +3, Int: 8, Empathic Link, Shared Spells, Shared Sav's, Imp Speed, Command Creatures of Kind.

So if we look at a Hvy Warhorse 4HD, AC14, Str 18, Dex 13 Con 17, Spd 50
and apply all bonuses (do they stack, Nat Armor does, stat bonuses are inheret so they do.) We get

HD: 21, AC: 35, Str: 26, Dex: 18, Con: 17, Speed 60
If we apply the HD advancements at 8,12,16,20 to Con we get 21 Con.
With a avg of 4.5 hp/die we get 95hp +105hp for Con = 200hp
and we get feats at 6,9,12,15,18,21

The Celestial Template at 12+HD gives, Resistance to Acid, Cold, Elec of 10, and a DR or 10/Magic, and a SR of 26, Darkvision and Smite Evil or 20 pts of dam.

Is the math right here? And if we go for a mounted combo, whats some good feats for me and my mount are. I was going with riding thru baddies, using ride checks to strike the mount (With some good barding I could probably hit AC 50, with the mount having Karmic Strike and Combat Relexes he gets alot of AO's
