Billy Perkins must have had a few cocktails prior to the races at Rosecroft, as we looped the field three deep around the last turn and drew off at 64 to 1
Perkins says 'Bombs Away, shut the door, turn out the lights'.......I was laughing my ass off.
At Ocean Downs Billy had silent ownership in a horse that could stop on a dime....they did some vet work and 'treated him'.....Perkins mentioned that his horse was not going to stop that night. Race goes off, he is up 5 at the half, 3 at the ocean turn for home and his race call was at a fevered pitch...like death and taxes the horse quit and his call ended with..'the son of a bitch stopped again'....true story
