Sam Eseh, Joe Wardle (twice), Adam Keighran, Junior Nsemba, Bevan French and Jack Farrimond got in on the act for Wigan, who climbed to fourth in the Super League table.

But a frenetic final 10 minutes saw York score four times without reply, through Cody Hunter (twice), Liam Harris and Scott Galeano.
