Canadian Show Jumper Amy Millar, 39, made her Olympic debut in Rio riding the nine-year-old gelding Heros and began the individual competition with a clear round.  Alas the team narrowly lost to Germany in a jump-off for the team bronze medal but for Millar this was a career highlight in her first championships. Her father, Ian, 69, (aka Captain Canada) has already competed in 10 Olympic Games and with her six-year-old daughter Lily already following in her footsteps, these Olympics have made Millar even more ambitious to continue the family tradition of becoming a multi-Olympian.
