Susan Dye (Delamere Forest), thje English seniors champion, slipped past the Scot into the pole position with a 75 to take a one-shot lead on 152.
Another English player, Jane Rees from Hendon, also had a 75, the joint lowest score of the day, to be lying third on 153.
Scottish senior match-play champion Lorna Bennett (Ladybank) is not out of contention by any means on 156. She had a 77 to be joint fifth at the end of the second day.
Defending champion Alison Murdoch from Vancouver is 10 shots off the pace after rounds of 82 and 79 for 161 and a share of 14th place.
Only those with two-round totals of 168 or better will contest the final round.
Scots who did not survive the cut included Noreen Fenton (Merchants of Edinburgh) on 169 and Karen Ballantyne (Craigmillar Park) on 175.
