LONDON Irish maintained their 100% start to the season with a 41-17 victory over nearest title-challengers Yorkshire Carnegie on Saturday.
A 4,000-strong crowd at Madejski Stadium watched the Exiles make it a perfect 10 victories in all competitions with another awesome display of rugby.
Ben Ransom and James Marshall scored two tries apiece while Aseli Tikoirotuma also crossed the whitewash in the bonus-point win, with Tommy Bell adding 16 points with the boot.
Yorkshire did notch two touchdowns themselves through Jonah Holmes, but they were second best throughout in the battle of the top two sides in the Greene King IPA Championship.
The win puts the Exiles six points clear of Yorkshire at the top, with a trip to Cornish Pirates up next on November 19.
