Music Note (February 5, 2005, in Kentucky) is an American Thoroughbred racehorse sired by A.P. Indy and out of the Sadler's Wells mare Note Musicale. Music Note is owned by Godolphin Racing and is a Grade 1 winner for them.
Music Note was a finalist for the Eclipse Award's American Champion Three-Year-Old Filly in 2008.
In 2009, Music Note made her late debut in a disappointing finish, but later on in August came back into her own and won her fourth Grade I race over seven furlongs in the Ballerina Stakes over sprint sensation Indian Blessing. She then won her fifth Grade I race in early October, capturing the Beldame Stakes in a very game fashion.

Famous quotes containing the words music and/or note:
“The train was crammed, the heat stifling. We feel out of sorts, but do not quite know if we are hungry or drowsy. But when we have fed and slept, life will regain its looks, and the American instruments will make music in the merry cafe described by our friend Lange. And then, sometime later, we die.”
—Vladimir Nabokov (1899–1977)
“During the cattle drives, Texas cowboy music came into national significance. Its practical purpose is well known—it was used primarily to keep the herds quiet at night, for often a ballad sung loudly and continuously enough might prevent a stampede. However, the cowboy also sang because he liked to sing.... In this music of the range and trail is “the grayness of the prairies, the mournful minor note of a Texas norther, and a rhythm that fits the gait of the cowboy’s pony.””
—Administration in the State of Texa, U.S. public relief program (1935-1943)
