SHOTSHELL (5) ran fourth at his latest appearance over 1m1/2f at Turfway Park, clocking in 1.4 lengths from the winner. Hard to go past. GHOST CREEK (4) missed the placings two runs back then improved last start but found a couple better over 6f at this track, beaten 5 lengths. Looks well placed so expect another big run. NORTHWIND (1) finished fifth over 1m1/4f at Remington Park (Dirt) at his most recent appearance on November 24. Sure to make his presence felt. RATLIFF CITY (8) recorded his maiden win three back and is ready to score again after a couple of recent minor placings, the latest when third at Remington Park (Dirt). Isaiah Wiseman has been in the money at the last three rides. Worth including in calculations.
