The Phillip Stokes trained filly was stakes-placed last spring and then
contested some of the better fillies races before heading for a spell. Brought along quietly this preparation in easier grade, Music Bay found her best form to score a half length win in the 1600 metre feature taking her overall record to three wins and four seconds from 11 starts with prizemoney just shy of $250,000.
Retained to race by her breeders, Music Bay is the best of four winners from Kaapstad mare Illicitly, a half-sister to Group I Brisbane Cup winner Piachay and stakes-winner Utility.
She is the 95th stakes-winner Coolmore veteran Choisir, who stands this spring at a fee of $27,500.
