About

Kahuka, an 8yo bay/brown gelding from Australia, is trained by Angus Townley in Pakenham. He is by Lord Kanaloa out of La Velata. So far he has won four races. His biggest victory came on 6 July 2023 at Moe, when he captured the $37,500 Benchmark 64 Handicap. The horse has consistently been a money‑maker for bettors; backing him throughout his career would have produced a 133% return on investment.
