A California Lottery Daily Derby ticket purchased in Burlingame is worth more than $900,000 after Sunday’s drawing, according to lottery officials.

The ticket for the horse racing-themed lottery game was purchased at the Bayshore Shell gas station at 1390 Old Bayshore Highway.

The grand prize of $946,765 is the third largest in the history of the Daily Derby game and came after more than three months without a grand prize winner, according to lottery officials.

Lottery officials said a winner has come forward and is waiting to be cleared. The winning ticket matched the winning horses in first place with No. 11 Money Bags, second place with No. 9 Winning Spirit and third place with NO. 12 Lucky Charms, with the winning race time of 1:43.29. According to California Lottery spokesman Elias Dominguez, the odds of winning a Daily Derby grand prize is one in 1,320,000. Lottery officials want to remind winners to sign the back of their ticket immediately, keep it in a safe place, and contact their local lottery district office as soon as possible.

Winners have 180 days from the date of the draw to claim their prizes.
