In 1984, Todd had become the first Kiwi to win an equestrian medal at the Games when he won the three-day eventing crown on board Charisma.
The New Zealand equestrian star and Charisma won again in 1988 in Seoul and also claimed bronze in the team competition.
In 1992 Todd also won team silver, before securing a bronze medal in the individual eventing competition at the 2000 Games in Sydney.
