Making the cut in his first tournament as a professional is not enough for Mark Power as he contemplates going low over the weekend.

A second round 71 to leave himself at five under was full of opportunities for the 22-year-old but just two birdies came along with a bogey, his first of the Irish Open, as chances to pick up shots on his last three holes on the front nine went abegging.
