Lotto uses colours to distinguish the numbers and codes drawn each Wednesday and Saturday. The balls for the main draw come in six different colours, grouped in sets of nine or ten numbers. Whereas the 21 raffle codes selected in each draw all begin with one of nine colours e.g. BLUE or RUBY. Here you can get the most up to date statistics on which shades appear most often in the winning lines.
