Goals from defender Will Boyle and strikers Luke Varney, Billy Waters and Tyrone Barnett handed Cheltenham a 4-1 win to inflict further agony on League Two basement club Notts County.
Substitute Kane Hemmings did net a consolation from the penalty spot but the visitors struggled to create much of note throughout the game.
Cheltenham's opener came after 29 minutes when good work on the right from Ben Tozer and Kevin Dawson resulted in Charlie Raglan crossing for Doyle to head home.
The visitors were still recovering from that when the Robins doubled their lead after 36 minutes.
Waters broke into the area only to be bundled over by Craig Mackail-Smith and Varney drilled the resulting penalty low to goalkeeper Ryan Schofield's right.
Waters added his name to the scoresheet 10 minutes after the break, producing a calm finish after being put in the clear by Dawson, and then went close with a curling effort that flew just too high.
Notts' consolation came after 69 minutes with Hemmings scoring from the spot after Mackail-Smith had been fouled by Boyle.
But Cheltenham had the final say when substitute Barnett slammed he ball home two minutes from time following a goalmouth scramble.
