Kevin Kelsy scored twice on his return to the starting line-up as Rangers beat St Johnstone 4-0 to make it seven wins in eight league matches.
Kelsy opened the scoring in the first half when Ryan Naderi unselfishly squared to his strike partner to tap in after being played through by Minsu Kim.
St Johnstone made a triple substitution at the break and were on top when Naderi scored for Rangers against the run of play, bundling in after Toby Steward spilled a shot from Kim.

The home side extended their lead further when Kelsy was on hand at the back post to divert a header from Emmanuel Fernandez into the net.
Substitute Tochi Chukwuani added gloss to the win with the fourth when he turned in Djeidi Gassama's cross to move Rangers one point behind Celtic, who travel to Edinburgh to take on Hibernian live on Sky Sports on Sunday.
