Originally at Overbrook, Cavonnier was exported to Argentina in 2004.

I remember seeing a short segment on TVG, about a year ago, in which he is shown at his owner's farm (Mrs. Walter) in California. I remembered that the lady would come to the fence and feed him carrots. He looked in pretty good shape for his age.
