Harlequins leapfrogged Saracens into seventh place in the Zurich Premiership with a fifth successive victory at The Stoop.

The home side were outscored four tries to three but edged home thanks to 21 points from the boot of fly-half Paul Burke.

Saracens counterpart Andy Goode crossed twice in the second half in a 22-point personal haul as the visitors salvaged two bonus points.

Burke out-kicked Goode initially, converting two penalties to one, but it was Saracens who grabbed the first try of the afternoon.

A clever chip by in-form hooker Matt Cairns set up the score, wing Richard Haughton profiting from a lucky bounce, and Goode converting.

But Harlequins bounced back in a similar fashion just before the break, England centre Will Greenwood chipping the ball down the right wing for Tani Fuga to score.

Burke converted but with Goode landing a 40th-minute penalty the sides were locked at 13-13 at half-time.

Burke then soon added his third penalty before Quins' Nathan Williams snatched an impressive 45th minute try.

The Australian full-back caught Saracen's defence napping after a powerful run from Andre Vos, Burke converting to create a 10-point cushion.
