A LOTTERY prize worth £1,160,724 has yet to be claimed - and the winner could be in Oxfordshire.

The million pound ticket was purchased in the neighbouring county of Warwickshire, but remains unclaimed.

National Lottery players are now being urged to check and double-check their tickets in case they hold the winning ticket.

Five main numbers and the Bonus Ball in the Lotto were matched in the ‘Must Be Won’ draw on May 15.

The winning Lotto numbers on that date were 6, 19, 27, 32, 39, 57 and the Bonus Ball was 50.

The ticket holder has until November 11 to claim the prize.

Lotto can only roll four times and on the fifth Lotto Rollover draw it must be won.

In a ‘Must Be Won’ draw, if the jackpot isn’t won, the prize amount is shared out amongst the other prize tiers, meaning lots of players could win lots more.

Camelot’s Andy Carter, Senior Winners’ Advisor at The National Lottery, said: “We are desperate to find this mystery ticket-holder and unite them with their winnings.

"This amazing prize could really make a huge difference to somebody’s life.

“In this Lotto ‘Must Be Won’ draw, one lucky ticket-holder, who would normally have won £1,000,000 for matching five man numbers and the Bonus Ball, has had their prize boosted as no ticket-holder matched all six numbers to scoop the jackpot. Now all this lucky winner needs to do is check their ticket and claim this amazing prize.”
