He then spun a consecutive three-bagger in races five through seven, with Fitness Craze ($17.60) in the $12,000 fifth race trot (1:58.3), odds-on Shake It Up High ($2.80) in the $15,000 sixth race pace (1:55.4) and short-priced Macjestic Toddy N ($3.80) in the $15,000 seventh race pace (1:55.2). Brennan cut the mile but settled for second in the eighth race, before airing with the veteran Report For Duty N ($5) in the $16,000 ninth race pace (1:53.1). He was AWOL in the 10th race before completing his double hat trick with Glass Prince in the $18,000 11th race pace.
