The Peebles rider, who won team gold in the event on Friday having done the same at London 2012, sustained a four-point penalty after clipping a fence to narrowly miss out on the medals jump off.

Laura Muir is refusing to be drawn on talk about her potential Olympic medal hopes, insisting all she is thinking about is the 1500m semi-final.
The Scot, who is ranked fourth in the world, coasted through her heat on Tuesday, finishing second in a time of three minutes 58.91 seconds.
It was an assured start for the Scot, who broke her own British record over the distance in the Diamond League meeting in Paris last month.
A 1500m silver medallist at the last Olympics, she batted aside any questions about whether she can go one step better this time round.
"It is so easy to think about the final, but I have got to think about the semi first because that is going to be pretty crazy,” Muir told BBC Sport Scotland.
“I am really, really relaxed. I have never been in this position before as a reigning Olympic medallist. I have nothing to lose so if I can just enjoy it and stay relaxed, I know I can run fast.”

Image source, PA MediaSarah Robertson has spoken of her "heartache" after Team GB were knocked out of the Olympics and admits she might never play for the side again.
Britain's women were beaten 3-1 by tournament favourites and defending champions the Netherlands in the quarter finals.
Robertson was one of three Scots in the team, alongside Amy Costello and Charlotte Watson.
The 30-year-old, who won a bronze medal at the last Olympics, has amassed nearly 100 caps for Great Britain.
"I think we are really proud of the fight we showed but also it's heartache when your Olympic dream is over and it's potentially the last time I will play for Great Britain," she told BBC Scotland.
"Four years is the next big opportunity for Great Britain and I am not sure I have got another one in me. I will need to see what happens but I will take time to think."

The Peebles rider helped GB top the podium in the team competition on Saturday.
And now the 2012 team gold medallist will bid for glory in his own right on horse Hello Jefferson after easing into the final by finishing 12th of the 30 qualifiers at the Palace of Versailles.
Scotland's Anna Burnet - and her partner John Gimson - remain in a good position as the qualifying rounds in the mixed Nacra sailing event continue.
The Team GB duo, who won a silver medal at the last Olympics, are placed fourth overall after today's sailing off the Marseilles coast.
The remaining three qualifying rounds take place tomorrow.
The top ten teams after 12 races will compete for medals on Wednesday.

Image source, PA MediaScottish discus thrower Nick Percy described simply competing at the Olympics as "my final" after he failed to progress beyond the qualification round.
The Glasgow-born athlete peaked with a throw of 61.81m in his second attempt in Paris. That saw him finish 12th in his group but wasn't enough to advance.
"I am feeling absolute joy," Percy said. "This is my final, being here at this event. I am really proud.
"It’s the Olympic Games and there is a lot of pressure. You only have three attempts; it is not easy and the last few weeks have been a struggle emotionally.
"I said to my family and coach that if I walk away with a 62m throw, I have done very well. With 61.81m, you are basically there.'
"It's very rare that you can say you have nearly 70,000 clapping for you. It is a real emotional thing and I am taking it all in. I don’t want this to end.
"It is such a special day, so there is no disappointment."

GB's Kerr qualifies for 1500m final
There will be two Scots in the men's 1500m Olympic final after both Josh Kerr and Neil Gourley advanced from their semi-finals.
Gold-medal contender Kerr played a three-and-a-half lap game of cat and mouse with Jakob Ingebrigtsen before easing up to finish second to his Norwegian rival in a heavily-stacked first semi.
Gourley then went out strong and held on to earn his place, posting a quicker time than Kerr in finishing third to ensure he would also be back on Tuesday.
"It's a special thing," said 29-year-old Gourley. "We're really punching above our weight as a little nation here and we've got to appreciate how special that is for Scotland because it's quite something."
It would be even more special if one or both returned with a medal.
Kerr and Ingebrigtsen are the big tickets in the field and are expected to fight for gold and silver.
And while the latter charged to the front early and lead all the way to the finish, the Scot opted for a few judicious surges just to make sure his presence was felt.
"It was a good day," Kerr told BBC Scotland. "It was nice to get the legs moving a little bit faster and I felt the crowd... we're winning.
"It was top-heavy and I think it was obvious who the main players were going to be so I just kept an eye on the screen and made sure I got through smoothy.
"Now it's just about getting a lot of sleep, a lot of good food and getting ready for the big one."

Scott swam the butterfly on the third leg alongside Oliver Morgan, Adam Peaty, and Matt Richards, but the quartet finished outside the medals.
China took gold, the United States silver, and France bronze.
GB ended over a second down on third place.
It means Scott finishes his Olympics with two medals, a gold as part of the 4x200m men's relay team, and a silver in the 200m individual medley.
The 27-year-old from Alloa has overtaken Chris Hoy as Scotland's most decorated Olympian with eight medals in total.

GB's Reekie misses out on 800m women's final
A devastated Jemma Reekie walked past the lines and lines of journalists from around the world, stopping just once for the briefest of interviews.
She looked like she was struggling to comprehend how her Olympics has ended this way.
The Kilbarchan 800m runner was ranked in the world‘s top three going into this. She dreamed of a medal after finishing fourth in Tokyo. But now she won’t even be in Monday's final after being run out of her semi.
Reekie was well placed going into the last 150m but just couldn’t find a kick and finished out of the qualifying places in fifth. A savage blow.
“Not good but going to go away and speak to my coach and get myself together,” she told BBC Sport.
"I'm in the best shape of my life and I made some mistakes and that's what happens. I just need to go away and think about it."
Image source, Getty ImagesIt was a disappointing night for the two Scots in the 4x100m mixed medley relay final, as Great Britain lost their crown after finishing seventh.
Kathleen Dawson and Duncan Scott were part of the quartet which won gold in Tokyo but the Great Britain team finished well behind winners the United States, who also broke Britain's world record.
Dawson went off in the backstroke first, with Scott going on the butterfly leg third rather than on the freestyle, which was raced by Anna Hopkin.
James Wilby stood in for Adam Peaty on the breaststroke, with the multiple medallist struggling with his fitness after this morning's heats having had Covid-19.
Britain were behind from the start and never recovered to challenge for the medals, finishing over six seconds behind the Americans who set a new best time of three minutes 37.43 seconds.
China picked up silver and Australia claimed bronze.
Duncan Scott was unable to add to his Olympic medal haul as he and fellow Scot Kathleen Dawson could only finish seventh in the final as part of the Team GB mixed 4x100m medley relay team.
The British were defending champions and world record holders.
Dawson swam the opening backstroke, Scott dived in third for the butterfly, with Anna Hopkin and James Wilby on the other disciplines.
However, Gretchen Walsh and Torri Huske made the most of the lead that Ryan Murphy and Nic Finke handed them to win for United States in a new world record time.
