James Arlidge helped Newport Gwent Dragons beat Glasgow Warriors for the fifth time in a row away from home.
Fly-half Arlidge put 15 points on the board at Firhill, scoring the first try that was then added to by team-mates Rory Sidney and Richard Fussell.
The boot of Dan Parks aided Glasgow's cause, while Thom Evans provided Sean Lineen's men with their only try.
Warriors were within five points of the Dragons for the last ten minutes, but great defending saw the Welsh home.
