OZONE PARK, N.Y. - Marc Holliday has a lot to look forward to this summer.  As the chairman of the New York Racing Association, Holliday is excited about opening up the new Belmont Park in three months following a renovation project that topped $555 million.  As the owner of Celtic Dawn, Holliday has a 3-year-old filly who remained undefeated and made the successful transition from dirt to turf on Saturday, winning the $145,500 Cupecoy’s Joy division of the New York Stallion Series by 2 1/2 lengths at Aqueduct.  Holliday was in attendance Saturday at Aqueduct to watch Celtic Dawn - and one race later Laylani Lou - race. He said those were the last two runners his Blue Devil Racing Stable will have at Aqueduct, which ceases racing operations following the June 28 program.  “I didn’t know it was going to be as special as it is, but it is,” Holliday said in the Aqueduct winner’s circle. “I’m sitting here looking at the grandstand on the way in … this was the home of my youth, I’ll miss it quite a bit,” Holliday said. “But I’m also excited for Belmont. It’s bittersweet, but I think it’s time for a new era of New York racing.”  :: Access the most trusted data and information in horse racing! DRF Past Performances and Picks are available now. A year ago, Holliday had a fast male turf sprinter in Friend Ofthe Devil, who won a division of the NYSS but got injured and is no longer racing. Celtic Dawn won her debut last August at Saratoga, but, after getting her picture taken, was vanned off the track with a fractured pastern that needed surgery.  Celtic Dawn returned to the races winning a first-level statebred allowance last month on dirt, but was now getting her first start on turf. Originally carded with seven, the Cupecoy’s Joy went with five starters. Some of the speed scratched out and Miss Jane Hathaway sped off to the lead under Reylu Gutierrez.  Javier Castellano kept Celtic Dawn within a length of Miss Jane Hathaway before taking over inside the three-sixteenths pole. Celtic Dawn, trained by Carlos Martin, came home a handy winner, covering six furlongs in 1:08.30. She returned $3.38 as the heavy favorite.   Encantar, the only member of the field who had a win on turf, rallied to get second by 1 3/4 lengths over Miss Jane Hathaway. Galileans Girl and Carmen Amalia completed the order of finish. Dancingwithdestiny and Clap Back were scratched.  Castellano rode Celtic Dawn in her two previous races, both on dirt, and believes she is equally as talented on turf.  “I don’t see the difference between the two surfaces,” Castellano said. “First time on turf, she did amazing, nice and smooth, handled very well, finished really well, the same way she did on the dirt. I think she’s just special.”  Martin wants to keep Celtic Dawn on turf. His quandary now is whether to try to stretch her out in a race like Suzie O’Cain for New York-breds going 1 1/16 miles on July 23, or keep her sprinting in a race like the Grade 3, $225,000 Coronation Cup on July 18 at 5 1/2 furlongs.  As part of the renovation project at Belmont is the installation of a Tapeta track that will be used as the sole racing surface in the winter and for off-the-turf races this fall. Holliday said that could potentially be where Celtic Dawn winds up down the road.  “This might be the type of filly I would send around in the winter, but if we have the Tapeta going with some good races she’ll be there,” he said.  :: Want to learn more about handicapping and wagering?
