Columbia Man Wins Second Big Racetrax Prize

A Columbia man galloped back to the Winners’ Circle to collect another big payout on the Racetrax game. The loyal player won a Racetrax prize a few years ago, and returned this time to take home a $53,438 prize.

“I love playing this game,” the retired military veteran said.

The big winner picks four horses and generally likes to stay with that combination. On May 22, his lucky numbers were 10, 4, 7 and 9. Those numbers were very close to his combination from his last win. He said both winning combinations were a part of his strategy.

“I keep playing the same numbers,” the Howard County resident explained. “I like to play three high numbers and one low number.”

He plans to put his prize in the bank.

Short Stop Convenience at 10300 Little Patuxent Parkway in Columbia was also a big winner. The Howard County retailer will receive a $534.38 bonus, equal to 1% of the prize amount.

The Lottery is currently offering the popular Racetrax $6 for $5 promotion. Now through June 22, any $6 Racetrax purchase will receive a $1 discount. The maximum discount you can receive is $5 on any ticket valued at $30 or more.
