A LUCKY woman claims her intuition helped her scoop a huge lottery prize after her “sixth sense” drove her to pick up a ticket.
The winner, from Queensland, Australia, said it was “meant to be” after bagging £790,000 on the Gold Lotto draw.

She said she bought the ticket on impulse after having a feeling she might get lucky.
The woman – who chose to withhold her name – said: “It was completely fluky. It was meant to be.
“I had a sixth sense I was going to win the Gold Lotto. I just had a feeling in my stomach”.
After picking up the ticket, the woman was left stunned when her numbers actually came up as the federal election results rolled in.
She added: “I was just watching the election results and thought I would check my ticket.
“That’s when I saw six numbers in red in a row.
“I guess The Lott called the federal election for me, seeing all that red in a row.”
The woman was one of four winners of Saturday’s Gold Lotto draw, with each bagging £790,000.

She said she hopes to help her family and pay off her mortgage.
The winner added: “This changes everything for us. It just takes a lot of stress off.
”We can pay off the bills and the mortgage. I want to help my family as well.”
It comes after a woman told how she hasn’t been able to sleep since scooping a massive £22million lotto jackpot – despite not even forking out for the ticket.
The stunned winner, from Melbourne, didn’t think to check her numbers straight away but was left gobsmacked when they all matched.
In an incredible display of luck, the woman bagged the eye-watering Powerball prize after being gifted the ticket before the draw last Thursday.
Meanwhile, a bitter legal dispute has erupted between a couple who ran a winning lottery syndicate and a man trying to claim a slice of the cash.
