Ulster suffered a blow in their charge for the Guinness Pro12 play-offs after Newport Gwent Dragons claimed a 26-22 victory at Rodney Parade.

Neil Doak's side were looking to make it five league wins on the bounce to climb to second in the table as they eye a spot in the Belfast final.

But it was the 10th-placed Dragons, who seven days earlier had been stunned by bottom club Zebre, who took the spoils thanks to tries by hooker Rhys Buckley, scrum-half Jonathan Evans and full-back Carl Meyer.

Ulster had to settle for the consolation of a losing bonus thanks to a late score by Ross Adair, adding to Craig Gilroy's two tries.
