Paul Mullin's hat-trick helped Wrexham return to League Two's automatic promotion places in style by thrashing managerless Morecambe 6-0.
Joel Senior's own-goal and Mullin's first put the hosts 2-0 up early on and Jacob Mendy struck 10 minutes before half-time.
Mullin scored twice more after the break and James Jones completed the emphatic win against a side who saw manager Derek Adams leave for Ross County on Monday.
The Dragons took the lead inside five minutes when Senior put Mullin's dangerous left-wing cross through his own net.
Andy Cannon crossed for Mullin two minutes later and his shot squirmed under Morecambe's Adam Smith to double the advantage.
