In the marine of hand rattles and back-slaps in the mounting yard after Eco-friendly Moon's surprise win, Robert Hickmott managed to exist with no fanfare or reputation.
There were hugs via family and job-well-done large fives from those close up enough to recognise Hickmott, along with recognise his important role, but otherwise, they was among the number of anonymous faces in a star-studded mounting yard.
It is often the same strange predicament since Robert Hickmott became a member of the world of Lloyd Williams a decade ago; witnessed but not heard.
