Mold are up to second in the Cymru North after making it 19 points out of a possible last 21 with a superb victory at Maes Tegid on Saturday afternoon.
Barry Owen’s side made their effectiveness from set-pieces count as they sent early title favourites Bala crashing to a third loss in five matches.
Okera Simmonds gave the Lakesiders a 19th minute lead, but Luca Hogan levelled on 30 with his sixth goal of the season.
Town led for a second time six minutes into the second half when Charlie Fisher knocked in his fourth goal this term.
Mold then turned the game on its head, two goals in as many minutes from Lucas Gregson and Sam Duffy giving the visitors a lead.
And Gregson struck again on 83 from a Max McGoona assist to clinch the points for the Alyn Park outfit.
Brickfield Rangers 2 Denbigh Town 0
No sign of the Brickfield express derailing as the leaders hold a four-point advantage at the summit following Saturday’s home success over Denbigh.
