CONGREGATION (6) is yet to fill a placing in two runs since resuming from a lay-off, the latest when fourth over 7f at Randwick. Will strip fitter and can find winning form this time. Group 3 placegetter HEMAN (2) was having his first run for the Peter Snowden team last start when he made steady ground to run into third over 6½f at Warwick Farm at the first run back from a lay-off. Looks a great chance in this suitable contest. PURE ALPHA (5) showed good early speed and raced on the pace when when resuming after a lay-off last start before fading to finish ninth, beaten 3 lengths, over 7f at Randwick. Among the chances. ZOUATICA (3) was out of the money when resuming from a lay-off last start over 6½f at Bathurst, beaten 2.5 lengths after being in contention on the turn. Fitter so expect a better run this time.
