Bath showcased a scintillating attacking display to score nine tries and surpass 60 points as they blew away Saracens on their return to Prem action.

Tobias Elliott scored twice for Saracens - the first inside two minutes - but tries from Will Muir, Josh Bayliss, Alfie Barbeary and Henry Arundell secured a try-scoring bonus point for the hosts before the interval.

Ben Spencer then ran clear on the counter, replacement prop Kepu Tuipulotu added their sixth and a second from Arundell saw Bath canter comfortably clear as Saracens were held to zero points throughout the second half.

A moment of Finn Russell magic in the closing minutes helped set up Guy Pepper's try, before Bernard van der Linde capped a night that belonged to Bath as they laid down a marker after the league's eight-week break.

More to follow.
