About

At Grafton R6 The Kosciuszko on 18 October (Bm58), Quick Buck is a 4yo bay gelding from Australia trained by Glen Milligan of Taree. He is by Merchant Navy out of Not To Be Caught. Quick Buck has won two races so far, the biggest coming on 9 Sep 2025 at Grafton when he captured the $27 000 Class 1 Set‑Weight prize. He has proved a profitable pick for punters; backing him throughout his career would have delivered a 50 % return on investment.
