Burton strengthened their position at the top of the Blue Square Premier with a comfortable victory away at Weymouth.

The Brewers, looking to recover from two defeats, broke the deadlock when Lee Morris fired home from the left-hand side of the penalty area.

Shaun Harrad stole in to steer in the second, before the striker picked out Keith Gilroy who made it 3-0.

Morris scored his second before the hour mark and an own goal by Gavin Hoyte completed the rout.
