If Brian Sears isn't careful, he could make a living at this.

Sears, fresh off a six-pick of Yonkers Raceway's wins Saturday night, rolled a seven during Monday's 12-race Presidents' Night program.

Driving in each and every race, he picked up right where left off, throwing down the gauntlet in four of the evening's first five forays.

Death-and-taxes Going Native ($2.20) wired the foes he faced in the opener (1:55.1) before Double It Up ($5.30) aired in the third race (1:53.4). It was Fast And Feisty ($6.30) sticking her nose out at just the right moment in the fourth race (1:56.2) and K Slater ($6.80) overcoming the eight-hole (1:54.1) to win the fifth race.

His fifth win of the card came behind odds-on Glass Pack ($3.80) in the eighth race (1:54) and he bumped his win total to six with the freshly-claimed Go West Lucky Cam ($4.80) in the tenth race (1:53.3). Sears concluded his winner’s circle welcome wagon with prohibitive choice B Js Guy ($3.40) in the eleventh race (1:54.1).

Sears began the night leading the local driver standings with 63 wins while getting his picture taken at a nearly 27 percent clip.

For the record, Sears' remaining Monday drives resulted in a second-place finish, a breaker, a sixth, another sixth and getting photoed for the glory in the finale.
