TWO quickfire Liam Forsyth tries set Leigh Centurions on their way to a third successive win in the Betfred Championship.
The winger's scores in the space of two minutes, one of which featured the first of five Ben Reynolds conversions, handed John Duffy's men a 10-0 lead over York City Knights by the interval.
York hung in there at the start of the second half, with the next try vital to either side.

Centre Iain Thorniley galloped over in the 58th minute to virtually seal the result.
And Leigh finished with three tries in the last 13 minutes from hooker Liam Hood, Ben second-rower Hellewell and substitute Matty Wildie to leave York with no points from two games.
