Reid, pictured here in ladies' knitwear , enjoyed five birdies to expand upon her one-shot first-round lead.

The 27-year-old Derby-born player did exactly what she set out to do at the start of the day - and that was to reach 12-under.

Reid said her double bogey on the 13th on the way to her second-day 69 was just the wake-up call she needed to achieve some of her best form. She told reporters that staying "patient" had been key to setting up her round.

Her nearest rival is Pamela Pretswell, who carded eight under par for a career-best 65.

Carly Booth, Pretswell's fellow Scot, lies in joint fourth with Australian Rebecca Artis with Gwladys Nocera of France third.

It was not such a good day for Laura Davies, however. Dame Laura slipped nine places after shooting a 77.
