Splunk Search

How to edit my regex in props.conf for proper search-time field extraction using my sample data?

I'm trying to extract a field called Item_Name using the file props.conf on the search head. I'm currently using this in the props.conf file which isn't working:

EXTRACT-Item_Name = (?<=Item Name:).(.*?).(?=suid=) 

I would like to extract all the texts between Item Name and suid= into a field called Item_Name.

Below is the events
