Ira Alido moved on the threshold of a second Philippine Golf Tour win with an eagle-spiked 67, pulling ahead of the stellar pack as Frankie Miñoza holed out with a bogey for a 71 in a furious third round battle that saw the surge of a mix of veterans in the ICTSI Luisita Championship on Thursday in Tarlac.

'Third day, moving day. I really need to get close to the leader to have a chance,' said Alido, who bucked a bogey on the first hole with a cluster of birdies and an eagle on the par-5 ninth for a 32. He slowed down with a two-birdie, one-bogey card at the back but it proved enough to shove him to the top at 208.
