Wrexham need to put their Wembley heartache behind them and get ready for the beginning of a huge promotion push.
Wrexham have promotion in their own hands, win their remaining 14 League One fixtures and they will be playing Championship football next season guaranteed.
Phil Parkinson will know that is easier said than done however, one game at a time will no doubt be the message inside the dressing room and three points at the Racecourse Ground is a good start.
Bolton manager Steven Schumacher has praised Wrexham’s squad and the depth will now be needed as Parkinson battles with injuries and loss of form in key areas of the pitch.

Wrexham team and injury news ahead of Bolton Wanderers clash
The Wrexham squad has a few issues to contend with and there will be some important decisions to be made by Parkinson.
Andy Cannon has suffered a ruptured acl and will be out of action for between six to nine months, meaning a change in midfield is needed from the last league victory over Mansfield.
Elliot Lee returned to the pitch as a substitute against Peterborough United following his road traffic accident that kept him out since the last clash against Bolton in the EFL Trophy, he could be a midfield candidate.
Meanwhile there are still doubts over whether captain James McClean will recover in time for the game following a hip issue that kept him out of the last two games.
Paul Mullin also returned to the squad and made an appearance from the bench in the EFL Trophy semi final but it remains to be seen whether Parkinson picks him for a league matchday squad.
Long-term absentees Callum Burton, Luke Bolton, and Will Boyle will still be unavailable.

Parkinson set to revert back to Matty James in Wrexham’s midfield
Despite clear signs that Matty James and George Dobson struggle to play together at the heart of Wrexham’s midfield, Parkinson will revert back to his tried and tested with Lee still short in match fitness.
Goalkeeper is another issue for Parkinson as Arthur Okonkwo showed inconsistency yet again in the EFL Trophy semi final but Parkinson will stick with the youngster for the huge clash.
In attack, Jack Marriott failed to take his opportunity to impress against his former side Peterborough so Sam Smith and Jay Rodriguez will look to resume their partnership and fire the Red Dragons to victory.
Sebastian Revan performed well in the victory at Field Mill and was rested against Peterborough so looks set to keep his place at left wing-back, whilst Ryan Barnett should return on the right after being rested against Mansfield.
Parkinson has a lot of key decisions to make in vital areas of the pitch and will need to get them right if the Red Dragons want to keep the pressure on in the race for promotion.
