The only recent cavalry formation I know of was an independant cavalry formation of (I think) brigade strength, though I stand to be corrected) which was employed on cerominal duties only. They were known as "The Film stars" as theiry were employed on many Soviet films as extras.
Whether the formation would have a general in charge is highly doubtful. I would guess that it would be led by a Colonel or Lieut-Colonel and no higher.
