Sarries win a warning to future opponents
The Premiership champions produced a masterclass in Belfast, picking up a bonus-point 27-9 win thanks to tries from Chris Wyles, Alex Goode, Duncan Taylor and Billy Vunipola.
The win came despite Saracens trailing 0-9 to Paddy Jackson's boot at one stage, as well as having to play 20 minutes a man down after Michael Rhodes and Billy Vunipola were sin-binned.
It leaves Mark McCall's side well-placed in the hunt for a knock-out spot, and man of the match Mako Vunipola feels they have shown they are contenders to lift the trophy in Lyon next May.
"It is a big statement. We are very pleased with the bonus point but even more pleased with the performance," said the England international.
"That was a good Ulster side and hopefully that puts us in good stead for the rest of the campaign. Us forwards love days like this, it was a great team effort against a tough pack. We ground them down and we are very pleased.
"We were not comfortable at half-time, we knew we could improve but we came out and put a good performance in and picked up the five points.
"We enjoy the challenge of these atmospheres. We are tight knit as a group, we bring energy to each other, we work hard for each other and we will always take a win like that."
