New Group-winning juvenile for Tower Of London

Felicita lands the G3 Hakodate Nisai Stakes

Felicita, a two-year-old daughter of Tower Of London, remained unbeaten on Sunday, 19 July when winning the G3 Hakodate Nisai Stakes, the first Group race for juveniles this year in Japan. Run over 1200m, she was never far off the pace and asserted near the finish to win by a neck.

Now unbeaten in two career starts, Felicita had won a Newcomers Race over the same course and distance last month.

Bred by Maeda Farm, Felicita is the first Black Type winner bred by the Heart’s Cry mare Just The Happiness.

Tower Of London, winner of the G1 Sprinters Stakes in 2019, has sired 94 winners from his first three crops to race. They are headed by Panja Tower, who landed the G1 NHK Mile Cup in 2025 at Tokyo.
