The four-year-old former Kiwi showed a blistering turn of foot to take out the Coorparoo Park Harness Breeders NSW Go Girlfriend Heat (1755m).
Hewitt purchased the mare from New Zealand and shares in the ownership with a number of players and officials from Canberra Raiders, including coach Ricky Stuart and captain Jarrod Croker.
They tune in for all of her starts and will no doubt do the same later this month for the $30,000 final at Menangle.
Hewitt has a plan to have Supriya ready to make her presence felt in the final on July 23.
“I will give her a start at Menangle just so she has a go at the track before the final,” he said.
Supriya started a short priced favourite and had some luck with an inside run at the 200 metres after being crossed for the front by Grinear Girl.
The runner-up Danielles Pride also qualified for the final with a solid effort as did the fast finishing Killara Ninja.
Hewitt made it a driving double when Allstar Sea proved too classy for his rivals with his second straight win.
