IF Persimmon's anonymous spokesman is telling the truth ("Fans in protest", September 8) when he says that his company "was never sponsoring" the Strensall Stakes, perhaps he could explain why York Racecourse's website is still making reference to the Persimmon Strensall Stakes?
If it's just an unfortunate misunderstanding, it will dash the hopes of those of us who thought Persimmon had realised how ridiculous it would look for the company to splash its logo all over one major York sporting venue while, in our opinion, it was planning to destroy another.
