Elsewhere on Friday, the battle for Celtic Cup seedings and Heineken Cup places continued with Leinster edging out the Scarlets thanks to a superb 26 point performance from fly-half David Holwell.
Ulster heaped further woe on the Borders in Belfast in a result that takes them ahead of Connacht in the battle to finish as the third Irish side, while Glasgow edged out Cardiff Blues with fly-half Dan Parks putting his Six Nations troubles behind him to seal the victory.
