A Gloucester scrum resulted in a Wasps penalty, which Daly again converted from long distance, before adding his third from the boot with a 47-metre effort as Wasps went into half time with a 16-0 lead.
The second period began with a red card for Gloucester as David Halaifonua was given his marching orders after a high tackle on Davies.
Gloucester finally got on the board in the 48th minute as Scotland scrum-half Greg Laidlaw split the posts with a penalty.
