Smith stars as Quins beat Saracens for first win

Quins secured their first league win of the season with a commanding 33-15 victory over Saracens in the London derby at The Stoop. Marcus Smith shone throughout the match and marked his 200th appearance for the club with the opening try. Seb Driscoll added another score, followed by a penalty try for Cadan Murley, who scored his ninth London derby try.

Despite a late push from Saracens, Quins maintained their lead with Will Porter and a late consolation try from Nick Tompkins. The win extends Quins' unbeaten run to three home Prem victories and keeps them just one point behind early leaders Gloucester, while Saracens remain in fifth place.
