The way Last Supper burst through the pack to score at his last start drove home two messages.
One was a revelation - he can handle Polytrack. But we already knew the second one - he is much better than Class 4.
The son of Grunt was even tagged as James Peters' gun 3YO once. He did not score, but ran creditably, in the 1,200m Sprint leg, though he was disappointing in the next 1,400m Classic leg.
But the seven-point penalty he accrued for that 13/4-length win on June 16 still qualified him for one last shot at Class 4 on July 13.
On 66 points, he will lump the top weight in a similar 1,100m event in the last race, but 58.5kg is by no means a back-breaking load for a horse tipping the scales at around 520kg.
