Aegon will leave New Zealand next month with an unbeaten record, as Sacred Falls did when he headed to Sydney in 2013. Although they did not take identical paths, both numbered the Group 1 New Zealand 2000 Guineas (1600m) and the Group 2 Hawke's Bay Guineas (1400m) among their New Zealand victories. "I think we will give him his chance to get over ground, and that will probably mean a 2000m race," Forsman said. Likely to join Aegon in Sydney are two stablemates that ran well in Sydney last autumn, The Chosen One and Quick Thinker.
