Resistencia won the 71st running of the Hanshin Juvenile Fillies on Sunday to capture her first Grade 1 victory and remain undefeated in three starts.
With Yuichi Kitamura aboard, fourth-favorite Resistencia led wire-to-wire over the 1,600-meters at Hanshin Racecourse, crossing the line unrivaled in a record time of 1 minute, 32.7 seconds.
"I'm grateful to (Resistencia). She was strong," said Kitamura, who won the year-end race for 2-year-old fillies for the first time.
