The Dragons' guns combined for seven of their side's nine tries in the 28-point, round eight win, Robinson scoring two either side of half-time while Smith opened the scoring before bagging a second-half brace.
Lee Hicks and captain-coach Jack Littlejohn also crossed in the second half, as the Dragons ran away with the encounter after holding a narrow, 12-6 lead at the half-time break.
CYMS hooker Ryan Griffin scored a second-half double but they were little more than consolation points for his side, which now dips further adrift of the competition's top sides.
"It was a good dominant win by the premier division side," Club president, Sebastian Flack said.
"There was a bit of niggle and foul play but we rose above and put on some classy plays and in turn we were on the positive end of the score board.
"The right hand side especially had a fantastic day with birthday boy Jared Robinson scoring 4 and Corin Smith scoring 3. It was efforts all over the park that gave us the ability to work that edge and get good attacking ball, it was a good all round performance.
"We still need to improve our discipline, which we will continue to work on."
The Dragons take on Lithgow Workies at Tony Luchetti Sportsground, 2pm, June 9.
