Saturday's Gallagher Premiership: Northampton reinforced position at top of table, beating Leicester in derby after Solomone Kata red card; Tom Parton scored fastest hat-trick in Premiership history as Saracens proved too strong for Gloucester; Bath won away at Exeter Chiefs Northampton marched to a 40-17 Premiership bonus-point win over 14-man Leicester as they reinforced their status as table toppers on derby day in the East Midlands.
Leicester went in ahead at half-time leading 10-6 after a scrappy 40 minutes that included a yellow card apiece. But the Saints showed their class after the break, pulling away with a helping hand from Solomone Kata, who was dismissed for a dangerous high tackle on Fraser Dingwall with the score at 18-17 in Northampton's favour.
The home side scored five tries in total during the second period as they warmed up for trips to Twickenham and Croke Park in the coming weeks with a fourth successive win.
