Barrow roared back to form with a 46-12 home win over Bradford Bulls.
It was their best performance of the season and the Bulls were a well beaten side in the end.
That wasn’t the case in a tight, hard-fought first half when Bradford enjoyed a 6-4 lead at the break.
But once they had got their noses in front four minutes into the second half the Raiders pulled away impressively.
It was one try apiece in the first half after Bradford had taken the lead on four minutes with a penalty by Dec Patton.
Luke Broadbent edged Barrow in front with an unconverted try after 13 minutes and then Bradford grabbed back the lead with an unimproved try from Louis Roberts in the corner.
The Barrow charge to victory started on 44 minutes when Shane Toal’s inside pass went astray but Luke Cresswell picked-up to go over. Ryan Shaw’s conversion took him to 1500 points in his career.
Cresswell scored his second on 50 minutes after a long distance move had split the Bulls defence.
It was all Barrow now and five minutes later Broadbent got on the score-sheet following more good passing and movement from the home side.
Bradford had a brief spell of good possession and in that time Jack Walker crashed over for their second try, converted by Patton.
But after that it was all Barrow and from the re-start a clever grubber was gathered by Jarrod Sammut who sent Rio Corkill in for the try.
On 68 minutes Barrow scored again as Toal powered through some weak tackles to get the ball down and six minutes later Cresswell completed his hat-trick after good work by Danny Langtree.
Sammut scored the final try three minutes from the end and Shaw landed his seventh goal.
