I don't know CA racing anywhere near as well as you, but the same thing holds true for me. When the racing switches over to LRC I sometimes take a look at the weekend stakes. I never look at GG even if they are running one of their stakes.
I was never in the anti synthetic crowd, but once the industry reversed course in CA and at KEE, I simply stopped paying attention to synthetic racing anywhere. The only time I look at WO is if there are major turf races. There have to be other people like me that threw in the towel on Arlington for that reason.
