Paul Lawrie will take a one-shot lead going into the final round of the Qatar Masters.
The Scot hit a round 67 to put him eight-under after two days' play.
His lead could have been more had he not been given a one-shot penalty for dropping his ball on his marker at the 10th green.
Belgium's Nicolas Colsaerts is one shot behind, while Peter Hanson and Ricardo Gonzalez are a shot further back.
Britain's highest-placed player is Simon Khan, who hit a round of 68 to leave him three-under.
