Verdict
MUSICAL ART made a winning start at Newbury last year but failed to threaten in Pattern company subsequently. Rated 97, she has little to fear from the others with racecourse experience on what they have shown so far. Tropical Waters and Servilia may improve enough to get involved but a bigger threat may come from the newcomers with Broken Time, a half-sister to a Listed winner, just preferred to Boodley.
