CALEY JAGS' top scorer Adam Rooney's double helped Inverness to a 3-1 win at Hamilton to extend their near year-long unbeaten record in away league action.
The forward netted twice in 10 early second-half minutes, with a Jonny Hayes goal sandwiched in between, to claim victory in the Scottish Premier League encounter at New Douglas Park.
It was Hamilton who had taken a deserved lead on 29 minutes when Dougie Imrie produced an excellent finish against his old team, but the bottom side had no answer to Inverness' swift and comprehensive second-half response which leaves Accies still searching for their first home win of the season.
Inverness manager Terry Butcher named an unchanged starting XI from the team which triumphed at Aberdeen in midweek.
Hamilton took the lead on 29 minutes when Imrie produced an excellent finish to net against his former side.
Accies goalkeeper Tomas Cerny launched forward a free-kick from just outside his own area. It was headed on by Casalinuovo to Imrie on the left side of the box, and he lifted a cool diagonal finish over the goalkeeper and into the opposite corner.
Inverness had their best chance 10 minutes before the break when Adam Rooney sent a cross from the byline arrowing towards Richie Foran, but home captain Simon Mensing appeared with a well-timed header and Cerny then soared clear in the six-yard box to make an easy save from Hayes' free-kick.
Inverness wasted little time in restoring parity, doing so four minutes after the restart when Rooney took advantage of an unforced Elebert error which gifted him the ball just outside the area, and the Inverness forward was alert to seize possession and slot home the equaliser.
The Highlanders then forged a 2-1 lead three minutes later when Hayes converted a cross from Rooney on the left, blasting home from close range.
Accies manager Reid swiftly responded with a double substitution, replacing youngsters Hopkirk and Kirkpatrick with striker twins Flavio and Marco Paixao.
Instead, though, it was Inverness who were next on the scoresheet, Rooney heading home his second and his side's third.
His header following Stuart Duff's free-kick on the right and Hayes' cross seemed as though it might drift wide of the right-hand post, but curled in to beat a despairing Cerny.
With Inverness looking comfortable thanks to their two-goal cushion, there was little in the way of goalmouth action in the closing stages and Hamilton never looked likely of salvaging a point.
