Depending on your OS you could also give a try to :
Code:
tac gclog.txt | sed '/-/!d;s/.*>//;s/K.*//;q'

or
Code:
tail -r gclog.txt | sed '/-/!d;s/.*>//;s/K.*//;q'

Should be faster because starting from end of file

Note that using the tail command without additional options you assume that the line that you want to extract is in the output of your tail command which may not be the case if the number of subsequent "uninteresting" lines exceed 9.
