Kilmarnock boss Jim Jefferies was full of praise for his young side after they recorded a commanding 4-1 win at home to Inverness Caledonian Thistle.
Killie hit back from a goal down to see off the Highlanders, with Craig Bryson leading the way with two goals.
Jefferies commented: "Some of the quality of the play in the lead-up to the goals and other chances was terrific.
"We had Craig Bryson driving forward from the middle of the park, he's always a threat and young Iain Flannigan and Tim Clancy can be pleased with their performances too.
"They were given a chance and they grabbed it with both hands. It was terrific to put on a performance like that. The whole team can be pleased with their showing.
"Maybe what has happened with Gretna has enabled us to relax a bit more and we just want to maintain the consistency of performance for the rest of the season and finish as high up the table as possible.
"The challenge is there for the players to make sure they are here next season."
