Saracens responded quickly to the Trailfinders try, with them evening the score with a great pass from Poppy Cleall leading to a try from Sydney Gregson just 3 minutes later.
Saracens take the lead for the first time 17 minutes in, with the forwards showing their strength pushing the Trailfinders defence to its limits leading to a try from Marlie Packer. A period of relentless attack from Saracens, suffocated the Trailfinders defence with Alysha Corrigan eventually finding the try line and getting Saracens their third try of the game.
Saracens continue to grow their lead with Lotte Sharp scoring a beautifully crafted try getting Saracens their bonus point try with 5 minutes left to go of the first half. Trailfinders continue to struggle with the speed of ball meanwhile Saracens power to their fifth try of the game moments before the clock turned red marking the end of the first half.
