Sir Mark James Todd grew up around horses. He was a pony club rider in New Zealand as a child. He had planned to become a jockey, but a growth spurt changed his route, and he became an eventer.
That was Mark Todd of New Zealand in Individual Eventing. Todd and Charisma also won bronze at the 1988 Games in Team Eventing along with Margaret Knighton and Enterprise, Tinks Pottinger and Volunteer, and Andrew Bennie and Grayshott.
