HYATTSVILLE, MD — A Prince George’s County woman is celebrating a $30,479 Racetrax win after her $1 Superfecta quick-pick ticket paid off in a big way.

The lucky winner placed a $1 Superfecta wager on the 3, 9, 5, and 11 horses for 15 consecutive races. On Jan. 13, those horses crossed the finish line in the exact order, securing her the top prize.
