Comments:

• The draw used ball set 4 in the Arthur machine and the average main Lotto prize was £26.73. One in every 59.4 main Lotto tickets won a prize (=1.68% of players).
• If all 13,983,816 ticket combinations were additionally purchased for the main Lotto game, they would have made a loss of £8,860,391.
• The prior history of the main Lotto jackpot ticket included 8 wins totalling £80.
• The number 38 stretched its leads at the top of the main and winning number frequency tables to 5 and 10 after its 116th and 135th such appearances respectively.
• Ball set 4 has become the first set to have been used 100 times since the lottery began.
• I matched one number on my first ticket and nothing on my second ticket, so there's no oasis for me in the desert of losing draws.
• Unclaimed prizes from this week expired at 11.00pm BST on Thursday 24th July 2003 and have been added to the National Lottery Distribution Fund.
