The new owner's success (3)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

wow

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'success' is the definition.
(I have seen 'Huge success' mean 'wow' so perhaps 'success' could also mean 'wow')

'the new owner's' is the wordplay.
'WOW' is hidden within the letters.
But, I'm unsure how this is indicated.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for wow that I've seen before include "Exclamation of admiration - another palindrome" , "Amazing thing" , "Expression of surprised admiration" , "boy" , "Expression of great admiration" .)
