The 29-year-old is on five-under par, nine adrift of leader Antoine Rozner, but is on track for his best finish since earning his main tour playing privileges last month.
He’ll tee off for his final round at 6.42am Irish time on Sunday alongside South Africa’s Bryce Easton.
It was a tough day for Ireland’s other remaining representative in the field as Tom McKibbin struggled to a round of four-over par 76.
McKibbin, who turns 20 on Monday, saw his round unravel with a triple-bogey on the par-three 11th and a double on the par-three 15th.
He is now in a tie for 50th on one-over par for the tournament.
