RUGBY HIGHLIGHTS:Premiership: Bath 10-30 SaracensChris Ashton scored twice on his return from a 10-week ban as Premiership leaders Saracens beat Bath, who had England wing Anthony Watson sent off.

Watson was shown a straight red card for taking full-back Alex Goode out in the air with half an hour to go.

By then Sarries led 18-3, Will Fraser and Mike Ellery with first-half tries.

Two tries for Ashton, banned for making contact with the eyes of Ulster's Luke Marshall, sealed Saracens' bonus point to move them eight clear of Exeter.

The 29-year-old, who was forced to miss the entirety of England's Six Nations Grand Slam-winning campaign, played the full 80 minutes on his first game back and will now hope to force his way into Eddie Jones' squad for the summer tour of Australia.

The former Northampton Saints wing displayed his trademark predatory instincts in finishing off fine team moves either side of Leroy Houston's consolation try for Bath.
