Northampton completed a season’s double over Wasps to secure Champions Cup qualification but were dealt a blow as fly-half Dan Biggar suffered an injury.
Biggar limped off late on in the contest in what will be a concern to British and Irish Lions head coach Warren Gatland.
The playmaker played a key part in the Saints’ 30-25 win as they showed impressive resolve having been dealt a setback prior to kick-off.
Harlequins’ five-point win at Bath ended Northampton’s chances of reaching the post-season but, with rivals Leicester threatening to overtake them, they showed a desire missing in the two previous rounds to secure a victory.
