Quins failed in their attempt to have influential fly-half Marcus Smith cleared to play against his international team mates due to rest period rules.

Murley scored two quick tries against last season's beaten finalist as Quins had no reason to be upset.

A long-range penalty from Allan - after the Italian landed both try conversions - opened a 17-point lead for the hosts.

Quins punished Sarries for an error on the counter- attack when Marchant went over.

The first try of the second half was scored by Tompkins, after Farrell kicked a penalty, to give the visitors the lead for the first time.
