Altrincham powered towards a place in the National League play-offs with an emphatic 6-1 victory over York at the J Davidson Stadium.
The hosts were on course for victory after just two minutes as an Eddie Jones ball went in off goalkeeper George Sykes-Kenworthy for an own goal.
Justin Amaluzor doubled the lead in the 26th minute and Jake Cooper added a third on the stroke of half-time.
Maz Kouhyar pulled one back just after the hour but an Alex Newby double, either side of a Chris Conn-Clarke effort, put the result beyond all doubt.
