Century Downs Picks – Apr. 17, 2026

Friday night under the lights at Century Downs sets the stage for a loaded 10-race card, and bettors are walking into serious value right from the jump. A $2,433.62 Pick 5 carryover kicks things off in Race 1, while the late sequence is just as juicy with a $2,718.65 Pick 4 carryover starting in Race 7. If you’re looking to cap the night with a swing, the Hi-5 in Race 10 comes with a $770.68 carryover, adding even more intrigue to an already stacked finale.

Picks Recap

After each card, we recap how our selections performed. A top selection must win to count as a success. The second selection must finish first or second, while the third selection must finish in the top three.

For payouts, top selections are calculated using a $2 win wager, second selections using a $2 place wager, and third selections using a $2 show wager. In the event of a scratch, that horse is removed while the rest of the selections remain unchanged. All payouts have the initial $2 wager deducted to reflect profit or loss.

Results will be tracked throughout the season and compared against our records at other tracks.
