I HAVE read in the paper and heard on television from a York Racecourse representative that the evening meeting at York is the first that they have had.
I believe this is not the case. I am sure that at the beginning of the 1970s they staged an evening meeting.
I was at York Technical College at the time and the teacher let us leave early so that we could go. It was poorly attended by York standards. If anybody else can recall this meeting I would be most interested.
