The search is now on to find the owner of the winning ticket, bought in West Lothian, who matched their five numbers in the Lotto HotPicks ‘Pick 5’ game* with five of the six main numbers from the Lotto draw on Saturday February 3 2018. The winning Lotto numbers on that date were 8, 26, 27, 29, 49 and 58.

Anyone not in possession of their ticket, for whatever reason, but who believes they have a genuine claim can still make a claim in writing to Camelot, but it must be within 30 days of the draw.
If no-one comes forward with the winning ticket before the prize claim deadline, then the prize money, plus all the interest it has generated, will go to help National Lottery-funded projects across the UK.
Andy Carter, Senior Winners’ Advisor at The National Lottery said, “We’re eager to find the mystery ticket-holder and unite them with their winnings – this amazing prize could really make a huge difference to somebody’s life. We’re urging everyone who bought a Lotto HotPicks ticket in this area to check their old tickets again or look anywhere a missing ticket could be hiding.
