Sandsteppe Mastodon rulings
Bolster itself doesn’t target any creature, though some spells and abilities that bolster may have other effects that target creatures. For example, you could put counters on a creature with protection from white with Abzan Skycaptain’s bolster ability.
You determine which creature to put counters on as the spell or ability that instructs you to bolster resolves.

Reach is a static ability.
A creature with flying can’t be blocked except by creatures with flying and/or reach. (See rule , “Declare Blockers Step,” and rule , “Flying.”)
Multiple instances of reach on the same creature are redundant.
Bolster Rule 701.33
“Bolster N” means “Choose a creature you control with the least toughness or tied for least toughness among creatures you control. Put N +1/+1 counters on that creature.”
