Warrington Wolves thrashed local rivals St Helens to remain second in Super League, two points behind Hull FC.

Chris Sandow's dummy set up Ben Currie to crash over, before Australian half-back Sandow touched down himself.

Currie's kick sent Ryan Atkins through for a try on his 300th career outing as Wolves led 16-0 at half-time.

Wolves continued their impressive play with Stefan Ratchford and Rhys Evans going over, with Saints full-back Jonny Lomax grabbing their only points.
