DAVID LAW'S PURPLE PATCH HELPS HIM

Runner-up on140 came Andrew McLachlan (Bonnyton ) with scores of 71 and 69. Andrew also had an eagle 2 at the 10th, in the first round. McLachlan, two shots off the pace after an opening round of 71, had birdies at the first, second, sixth and 17th but bogeys at the fifth and 14th in a second-round 69 - the best by anyone in the afternoon for 140.
