This latest win came at the perfect time to turn up the pressure on second-placed Ipswich Town.
Kieran McKenna’s side suffered a 2-0 loss on the road to Portsmouth, a serious slump after the high of their 2-0 East Anglia derby win over Norwich on Saturday.
Galway’s Conor Shaughnessy was on target for the Pompey opener at Fratton Park.
The Tractor Boys do have a game in hands as well two points better off than chasing Millwall, and three over Southampton as things stand.
Johnny Kenny is in a rich vein of form for Bolton and has made it three goals from the last three games as he netted in their 5-1 win over Stevenage that leaves them third in League 1, behind Lincoln City and Cardiff City.
Meanwhile, Jaze Kabia from Cork scored a goal in Grimsby’s 2-1 loss to Chesterfield in League 2.
