Annan moved into the Scottish League Two play-off places with a 5-0 rout at Montrose.
Veteran striker Peter Weatherson took his goals tally for the season to 15 with a first-half brace, including a 21st-minute penalty, to put the visitors firmly in control at Links Park.
Annan turned the screw further after the break, with Matthew Flynn (60) and Josh Todd (68) both striking from close range around the hour-mark.
Todd rubbed salt in by adding his second of the afternoon late on to make it 5-0.
Jim Chapman's side are now up to fourth, one point clear of Queen's Park after they drew with East Fife, while Montrose drop to ninth after Berwick and Arbroath both won.
