Walsall were beaten by improving to Swindon to slump to their seventh successive defeat.
The Robins took the lead after only 10 minutes when Alan Sheehan's low cross-shot sneaked inside the near post.
Walsall hit back in the second-half and equalised through Reuben Reid, who slammed home after David Lucas could only parry Jon Macken's drive.
The visitors snatched victory moments later though when Vincent Pericard fired in from close range.
Swindon manager Danny Wilson told BBC Wiltshire: "The game could have been put to bed .
"We couldn't have asked for more, other than a couple more goals.
"I thought the football we played was exceptional at times."
