Narrative:
I was working 2 fgt TACAN runway 26 intrail arrs. The aircraft were supposed to be no more than 2 mi apart. I was also working mlt to a precision approach runway 26. I transitioned both flts to radar final controller and then observed 1 fgt 7 mi behind his lead and 1 mi in front and under the mlt. I called lfi radar final controller and advised them the mlt had to go around.
