William Henry "Bill" Collins OAM (1928 – 14 June 1997) was an Australian racecaller who earned the reputation for being able to accurately call the winner of even the closest of races. Known as "The Accurate One", he was well known for his call of the Melbourne Cup each year. One of his most notable commentaries was the 1986 Cox Plate, dubbed the "Race of the Century". Collins also called important races in the UK, US, South Africa, New Zealand, Hong Kong and Singapore.
