History
editDavid Bernsen established Carondelet Farm in the early 1990s in Ramona, California near San Diego after purchasing the property from actor Jimmy Cagney.[2]
A complete renovation of Carondelet Farm was conducted while maintaining the look and feel from the 1950s from when the Cagney family used the property as their base while they attended horse races at the Del Mar Fairgrounds.[2]
The property became home to Raging Apalachee, the dam of the American Champion Sprinter Artax.[2]
