Ballistic Profit Possible for Anderson at Gold Coast

Queensland trainer Chris Anderson could have a bumper payout on Saturday at the Gold Coast when his two Think Big Stud part-owned horses Profit and Ballistic Boy tackle the $250,000 The Wave over 1800m. Although first place prizemoney for the feature is pretty lucrative, it’s the bonus for Magic Millions paid-up horses ($200,000 to the winner) that has piqued the interest of Anderson and his connections. Ironically, punters.com.au reports the potential big collect might only come about for Ballistic Boy courtesy of errant behaviour last weekend when he found himself face down inside the barriers and was duly scratched. All appears to be forgiven now with Anderson revealing, “All went without any hitch in the jumpout. I was very pleased to see everything back to normal,” Anderson said. “It was a very uneventful morning to be honest. “I owe a big thanks to the BRC barrier attendants for getting him out (last Saturday). Three of them ran around in front. It’s pretty dangerous and they did an amazing job!” The weights suggest Ballistic Boy is a huge chance, in receipt as he is of at least 3kg from all runners and 5kg from barn mate Profit.
