The Drayton Park member and England junior international carded a level par two-round total of 144, but was pipped by Jake Canning (Stoke Park), who shot 143.
The Oxfordshire's Alex Stubbs (pictured) won the handicap trophy by three strokes with a nett 139.
Frilfiord Heath Ladies reached round four of the Mail on Sunday Classic after a 3.5-1.5 home win over Magnolia Park.
