Merrick Bremner is the closest challenger to the Spaniard at the halfway stage following a round of 66, in which he recovered from a first-hole bogey to claim six birdies, but a further two bogeys left him two shots behind the lead.

Thursday's joint leaders David Horsey and Morten Orum Madsen dropped to tied third and tied 13th respectively.
