Labels of this nature are of course subjective, but I think she definitely deserves to be called a "G1 filly" based on her performances this year.

I think it's fair enough.
She looked like a grade I horse when she broke her maiden last year.
Just giving everybody a hard time because she has only beaten 7 horses in two grade I attempts. Only one of those was a true Grade I or GradeII level 3yo filly (Proud Spell), and she was hurt by bad racing luck before she was able to offer any actual competition.
IMO they were two miserable races by any standards (unless you mean "today's" literally as in today's CCAO...
).
I can separate that and see that Music Note looks tremendously talented.
