Harlequins 41
Northampton 32
HARLEQUINS coach Danny Wilson admitted Danny Care dodged a red card as his side kept their play-off hopes alive.
A crazy game of 10 tries and three yellow cards, all for the Londoners, ended with Northampton still top and odds-on for the play-offs and Quins level on points with fourth-placed Bristol in fifth.
But Quins were fortunate not to lose scrum-half Care (below) to a red card when he escaped a stone-cold second yellow.
Care took out opposite number Alex Mitchell at a ruck with Saints on the attack and should have been in the bin.
His first-half yellow for a head-on-head clash with Courtney Lawes would have made that an automatic red and he was replaced immediately afterwards.
