Rangers took the lead midway through the first half when Kasper Gorkss converted Wayne Routledge's inswinging corner.

It was 2-0 before half-time when Angelo Balanta beat visiting goalkeeper Kelvin Davis with a low shot.

The hosts added a third goal 20 minutes from time when Adel Taarabt produced a mazy run and a clinical side-footed finish.

Saints struggled to create chances, the nearest they came being a first-half header from Joseph Mills that sailed wide.
