Can you help me create a regex to extract a value from an event?

Below is a sample event. I could use some help in regex in fetching the value "29.3445667" present in the last part of the sentence that starts with [BRU Weak Reference.........

e.g. [BRU Weak Reference, 0.0008795 secs] 17G->12G(18G), 29.3445337 secs]
