NOTTINGHAM, MD – “Ynaffit” of Nottingham celebrates winning two big prizes only days apart on Racetrax Superfecta wagers.
Playing the numbers of horses that correspond to elements of her dad’s birthday, a Maryland Lottery player from Nottingham picked up two substantialRacetraxwins in a span of a few days. Her first big prize of $17,144 came on Sept. 7 and the second one for $6,500 on Sept. 15.
“I always playRacetrax,” said the lucky Baltimore County woman, who is going by the name “Ynaffit” for purposes of telling her winning tale and remaining anonymous.
The avidRacetraxplayer wasn’t always so focused on her favorite game. A few years ago, “Ynaffit” spread her Lottery money among a few types of games, including scratch-offs. It occurred to her that she was having her best luck betting onRacetrax’sanimated horses, so she decided to go all in on that one game.
“That’s all I play,Racetrax,” said “Ynaffit,” as she was claiming her second big prize.
For her first win, the $17,144 score, she played birth date numbers 7, 5, 11 and 1 with a $1Superfectabet. When she played on Sept. 15, she mixed it up a little and placed anotherSuperfectawager on 11, 5, 7 and 1 for the win.
Most of the money is going into “Ynaffit’s” house fund, as the 39-year-old player pursues the American dream. Some of it, however, will be spent when she travels to the Caribbean for a long trip later this year. Meanwhile, she plans to continue to enjoy the thrill of playingRacetrax.
Also getting a thrill from her Lottery luck is the Perry Hall BP gas station at 8809 Belair Road in Baltimore. The Baltimore County retailer picks up a bonus of $171.44, equal to 1% of the prize, from the Lottery for selling a winningRacetraxticket of $10,000 or more.
