Have heard some in the know eulogising about Mr Hawkins.
May be unfair to pick out a day in isolation but thought he was dreadful at Taunton the other day.
His performance on Present For You looked utterly inept.He allowed a prominent third position to become a remote 8th with minimal effort in the saddle only for the horse to run on into a closing fourth. After pulling up noticed he had a sly glance at the big screen. Not sure he`ll be getting much patronage when his claim goes.
