Llyrical broke his maiden tag at the 23rd attempt at Wolverhampton on Friday. Drawn 13 of 13 his task was not easy but fortunately, and in contrast to the preceding race, the early pace was not strong allowing the horse to manoeuvre across and take the lead. Llyrical then led all the way to the line despite being challenged for the lead in the final three furlongs.
