“Its more joy than anything else,” Lamaze said after taking a victory lap around the Olympic Equestrian Centre. “And relief that it’s finally over.”He won gold in 2008 aboard the mighty stallion Hickstead. The Schomberg, Ont., rider finished 25th in the individual event at the 2012 London Games and fifth in the team aboard an inexperienced Derly Chin de Muze. Her lone mistake Friday came on the penultimate fence on a jump-off against six riders, dropping Lamaze from gold to bronze. Skelton won gold aboard Big Star.
