#5 ANGELIC AURA (2/1) 6yo gelding has plenty of back class, having won multiple stakes prior to missing a year and a half. He returned from that long absence with a good effort Jan 19, setting the pace and staying gamely into the final furlong in a race he clearly needed. He was claimed that day and ran back Feb 9 while stepping up to this class level. He ran well enough to win many such races, but ran into a winner who won in graded stakes caliber time. Angelic Aura finished a clear 2nd that day and now cuts back to a mile, where his speed will be even more dangerous.Can lead or stalk and shows a big work Feb 27.

Wagering Strategy: A win bet on (5)ANGELIC AURA;
Exacta 5-6, reverse for half as much;
Smaller exacta 5-4, reverse for half as much.
