Viktor Vegas' connections have confidence in the well-bred 3-year-old's ability to make his mark in the higher grades.
The son of Tavistock was a trial winner in the autumn before he finished fourth, after an interrupted run, at his Ruakaka debut last month.
Viktor Vegas then exceeded his trainers' expectations last time out at Avondale where he broke his maiden by a widening seven lengths in the hands of Matt Cameron.
"We think a fair bit of him and the way he won the other day was really impressive, it surprised us a bit how he got the job done so well," said Andrew Forsman, who trains in partnership with Murray Baker.
"We would like to maybe give him one more run and then put him out with a view to the spring. We'll see if we can find a reasonable track somewhere."
