[edit] Use of term "Knight"
I wonder if in the context of the Visconti (and of most pre-20th century decks in general, actually), the term 'Knight' is appropriate.
Certainly they are 'horsemen' and 'horsewomen' (what is indicated by 'Cavalier' as well, incidentally)... ...horserider, perhaps?
I decided to write this here rather than edit to a term that would remain a little unclear
