About
Makusha is a 6yo bay gelding from Australia, trained by Rod Symons in Bendigo. He is by Magnus out of Kusha and has recorded five career wins. On 8 Dec 2023 at Moonee Valley he achieved his most notable triumph, taking the $60,000 C,G&E BM70 Hcp. He has proved a profitable runner for punters; backing him throughout his career would have delivered an 8% return on investment.
