Tries: Ashton 2, Hopoate, King, Philbin, Crowther, Irwin Goals: Irwin 7
Warrington kept alive their outside hopes of a top-two finish with a ruthless 42-4 victory against struggling Bradford Bulls at Bartercard Odsal Stadium.
With four of the top six winning earlier in the weekend, it was essential Wire backed up last week's victory over Castleford Tigers in order to stay within touching distance of the summit.
Against second-from-bottom Bradford, now without a win in nine outings, Sam Burgess' side took control of the game halfway through the first period and eased to a seven-try victory.
Tries came from Matty Ashton with two, Albert Hopoate, Toby King, Joe Philbin, Jordy Crowther and Ewan Irwin, the latter's unerring boot converting every one to extend a run of consecutive kicks to 15.
The win that moved them fourth in the Super League table, six points off Leeds Rhinos at the top and four behind Wigan in second with six games of the season still to come.
