Comments:

• The draw used ball set 1 in the Guinevere machine and the average main Lotto prize was £19.39. One in every 43.1 main Lotto tickets won a prize (=2.32% of players).
• If all 13,983,816 ticket combinations were additionally purchased for the main Lotto game, they would have made a loss of £9,951,529.
• The prior history of the main Lotto jackpot ticket included 6 wins totalling £60.
• The number 28 is now level with the number 25 at the top of the main number frequency table after its 52nd such appearance.
• The 30th appearance of the number 19 has left the number 20 stranded at the basement of the main number frequency table.
• The winning number triple 12, 28, 40 has become only the fifth such triple to have appeared five times since the lottery began.
• Ticket sales for Wednesday draws have now exceeded £3 billion.
• I matched one number on each of my two tickets, so sending off my annual subscription renewal this week didn't help my luck one iota.
• Unclaimed prizes from this draw expired at 11.00pm BST on Monday 19th July 1999 and have been added to the National Lottery Distribution Fund.
