Simon Thornton in great shape in Kazakhstan.

Royal County Down's Simon Thornton moved to within 1 shot of the 3 leaders after the second round of the KAZAKHSTAN OPEN.Thornton who hasn't had a great year so far is down in 68th in the order of merit as he only made 15,015 Euros from 8 starts.He can jump into the top 10 if he could win the first prize of 64,000 Euros this week.

It might be hard to do as the No1 player Edoardo Molinari 67.67,Gary Boyd(10th) 63.71 and Andrew Marshall(55th)71.63 are 1 shot ahead on -10.While Thornton(68th) hit 69 and a 4 birdie,1 eagle round of 66 for -9.
Colm Moriarty(49th) is on -3 after a second round of 70 and Gareth Shaw only made the -1 cut after a 73.
Johnny Caldwell who took a week off from the main tour was disqualified.
