Tom Voyce dives over to score Gloucester's second try

Gloucester ran in four tries to claim a bonus-point win over Leeds and climb to the top of LV= Cup Pool Three.

Tries from Lesley Vainikolo and Tom Voyce helped the visitors to a 15-9 half-time lead, with Ceiron Thomas kicking three penalties for Leeds.

Freddie Burns' penalty extended the Gloucester advantage before Scott Mathie's fine score cut the arrears.
