Wozwasnt is also correct that the cavalry were not interested in tanks even past the start of WW2, at which point they were forced into them- Sir Percy Hobart's biggest complaint against the Cavalry branch was that they were too tied to their Horse's (and playing polo in the case of the 7th Armoured Div in Egypt prior to the outbreak of WW2) to even begin to understand how to use tanks properly.
Hmmm......"Tank Polo" ???
(Well, they
have used elephants, haven't they?)
