I WAS one of those, on my own admission, who said the traffic problems would be insurmountable, and that gridlock and mayhem would take place.
I even went as far as to say Royal Ascot should not have been coming to York in the first place but to Newmarket.
I now admit I was wrong and congratulations to all who proved me so. Very well done, I certainly didn't wish things to go wrong and am delighted that they didn't.
Let's now hope that all future race meetings at York become Royal York and not just plain York. They fully deserve it.
