Hi, I was going to use
this
Blood build to level from 55 to 80, but I was wondering if an experienced DK could help me out and find a way to get On A Pale Horse while still keeping good dps/self heals

Keep your spec the same except switch out points from BCB or RD. So ultimately your points will be torn between Blood Caked Blade or Ravenous Dead. I'm thinking the Ravenous Dead will be better than Blood Caked Blade..... Blood Caked Blade can be parried.... and Ravenous Dead is a constant 3%...... to me that seems > BCB.... but I'm not a pro when it comes to either or ~_~

is a good starting spec for Blood w/Pale Horse. I went to lvl 58 on the talents since that's where you'll be once you reach Orgrimmar / Stormwind. You can with the Unholy tree first if you really want to ride faster early on. Beyond lvl 58, you can start applying your talent points to match your posted build. Remember that until you reach lvl 80, you can only have two major glyphs so you'll have to choose one to leave out. All three are great for Blood though, so its your choice. I've honestly never used Mark of Blood and Hysteria, and took Improved Rune Tap but it's completely a player preference choice. I'm personally a #$%^& for Imp Rune Tap. Also, the points in Morbidity could be switched to Ravenous Dead if you prefer, however Death Coil is Blood spec's primary RP dump and works nicely with Sudden Doom once you get that talent. Other than that, its a great Blood spec build. Enjoy.

So the only thing that matters from Ravenous Dead is the Strength, not the Ghoul contrbution right?

No you don't want a perma pet with that build, however I also don't think you need to have on a pale horse. Once you have maxed out talents that will improve your dps sure go for it then. However on a pale horse is more of a PvP talent.
Getting around 20% faster is huge. DK's are already op for just grinding quest mobs, but the extra run speed while leveling is huge.

/second this build, was just about to post the same thing.
Or, just level with an UH spec a bit further. You can level in Frost Presence and use glyphed Death Strike to keep your health up almost as well as Blood vs normal world mobs (not vs elites, though). For example, something
like this
(or the
lvl 58 version
). If you really want OaPH, it's worth at least considering continuing down the UH tree
