Yeah, I was thinking its CPS behaviour. Seen this fault before in Commodores.
Not to rule out the relay, but the fact it played up after running nice and hot and stopped for a short time, then once it started was again faultless, I'm thinking CPS.
It also started flawlessly this morning, and without the hustle and bustle of the supermarket carpark (and nearby main road) I was able to hear the fuel pump prime and the low pressure return to the tank before starting.

Would I be right in guessing the CPS wouldn't throw a code?

It's going to be 36°C today, though I'm only driving to/from work, which isn't very far. So the engine will be cold (!). If it plays up under these conditions, I'll swing more towards the relay.
If its faultless, I'll keep thinking CPS.
