Its a hardsell to move to California simply for the horseracing. The racing just really isnt that good, and the money really isnt better when you factor in cost of living, infact, its probably worse. You have high workers compensation, and everything else is relative.
California isnt going to draw new owners, they would need to cultivate owners who are based in California already. Nobody would go out to California because of "Cushion Track" It would be riduclous. The only thing they are worried about in California, Turfway, Woodbine is the wagering dollar, they dont care about the owners, or the trainers, or horses for that matter. They care about the bottom line, the money.
If they cared about the horses they would stop breeding unsound, inferior racehorses.
