Mark Todd selected for New Zealand Olympic eventing team

H&H news desk

17 June, 2008

Mark Todd will head New Zealand's eventing team at the Beijing Olympic Games. He is joined in the team by Andrew Nicholson (Lord Killinghurst), Caroline Powell (Lenamore), Joe Meyer (Snip) and Heelan Tompkins (Sugoi).

The eventing legend, who already has already been to five Olympics and won two individual golds, was delighted by the news. He told Horse & Hound: "I'm really looking forward to it, and we've got a solid team that's strong in all phases."


Mark has been working hard on Gandalf's dressage, which he describes at the horse's weakest phase. "He's changing shape all the time and I'm pleased with how he's progressing," he said
 
I'm so pleased he made the team, and equally pleased for Joe Meyer, as I used to be stabled on the same yard as him. Go Snip!!!
 
Super Brilliant! But does that mean he now won't need to run at Barbury? Coz I wanted to see him event again......

I think he will run at Barbury as it will be his first and only chance to test himself against the worlds best and see what he needs to work on.

Fab news glad it all came off.
