BOLD THRUSTER (2) has an excellent record over this journey having never missed the placings in four starts, including two wins and two placings.

Has a strong record out of this box with five wins and a minor placing from nine starts. Likely to be in the finish.

Missed the frame latest (28.76) when fifth over 500m at Bendigo in a Grade 5. Yet to miss the placings in five runs from this box, including three wins. Looks one of the chances.
