What conditions was your 400 PR set in? Was it fresh?
How soon do you need to run 52 flat?
I'd say you have a 20-30% chance at this point of breaking 52. If your 400 was run fresh and was a relay split, then put it as 5%.
My first ever 4x400 split was 53.2, by the end of the season I ran 50.9 without any change in training I just learned how to run the 400 better.
Start out very very hard, like 98 percent sprint, from 100 to 200 maintain form and just go all out, hold firm through the curve and with 100 to go start pumping your arms and don't worry about your legs they will follow
