Veteran rider Mark Todd is confident he will not be hampered by a minor Achilles injury ahead of the World Equestrian Games eventing competition starting today (NZT) at Lexington, Kentucky.

The two-time Olympic champion hurt his heel while training for the New York marathon last year, but will take his place when the New Zealand riders begin their campaign.
