A tricky finale to solve but CITY OF YORK is really getting his act together now, so David Simcock's gelding is fancied to complete the hat-trick at the expense of Metal Merchant, who is in better heart- than recent form figures suggest and has been given some respite from the handicapper. Mudskipper and Golspie were 1-2 at Salisbury earlier this month and they can do battle for bronze on this occasion.
