California racing was the most goddamned boring thing I ever encountered back when simulcasting expanded in the 90s--a largely closed circuit, with the same horses running at the same tracks with largely unvarying weather conditions (except for a couple of months in the winter).
The advent of polymania out there has made the situation much, much worse. It is a complete disgrace that the BC dumped their event there two years in a row. Every few years? Fine. Two years running--a joke.
