A Pikesville woman who already has a six-figure FAST PLAY progressive jackpot on her Lottery résumé was back in the winner’s circle Oct. 2 after winning $46,391 playing Racetrax.
The longtime Lottery player enjoys Racetrax, FAST PLAY and draw games, but she emphasizes the importance of playing responsibly and staying within her budget.
This is not her first big Lottery win. In 2024, she won a $953,000 FAST PLAY progressive jackpot and also had a $62,576 Racetrax win in 2025. For her latest Racetrax play, she decided to use a similar combination to the one that brought her that previous big prize.
She purchased the winning ticket in August at the 7-Eleven convenience store at 1 Greenwood Place in Pikesville. The retailer receives a bonus of $463.91.
The player did not realize right away that she had won. A few days later, she scanned her ticket using the Maryland Lottery app and discovered she had a sizable prize. She then took the ticket to a retailer, where the win was confirmed.
The $46,391 prize comes at an interesting time for the longtime computer analyst, who has spent 29 years with her current company. These days, she is looking ahead to retirement.
“I’m ready to move on,” she said.
She claimed her prize on October 2 at Lottery Headquarters.
A self-described “natural programmer,” the winner plans to retire early next year. She hopes to use her newfound free time to explore Maryland, while also expanding her skills by taking classes in artificial intelligence.
Outside of work, she enjoys crocheting and baking.
As for her latest Lottery windfall, the winner plans to pay off some small debts and put the rest toward her retirement fund.
And although retirement is approaching, she is not quite ready to leave the winner’s circle behind.
The repeat winner says she plans to make at least one more visit before she retires.
