Bolton continued their superb form by beating Stevenage 4-1 away in Sky Bet League One.
Wanderers, who have now won six and drawn one of their last eight games, were set on their way by two goals in three first-half minutes from Ricardo Santos and John McAtee.
Victor Adeboyejo and Dion Charles rounded off the win in the second half, either side of Dan Kemp's consolation.
Ricardo headed in a beautifully delivered corner in the 13th minute, arriving with pace at the back post, before McAtee bounced in a volley after a free-kick was only half-cleared to his feet on the edge of the box.
There had been positives for Stevenage in the first half but again there was a lack of chances, though Carl Piergianni felt he could have had a penalty on the hour when he was barged to the floor.
That did not come and when Bolton broke quickly, a cross was not dealt with at the near post and Adeboyejo fired the ball into the roof of the net to make it 3-0.
Dan Kemp grabbed his first goal for Stevenage with 20 minutes to go and for a moment there was hope in the Lamex.
That was snuffed out with two minutes remaining when Dion Charles slid in to finish off a great night for Bolton.
