I’ve seen this board say that Trafalgar is the gold standard for the presidential elections and bad for the midterms.

Pretty well. Thanks for asking.

Two years later, Cahaly’s method once again proved solid. In one of the most polled races of the cycle, Trafalgar stood alone as the only polling firm to correctly show a Ron DeSantis gubernatorial victory in Florida – as well as Rick Scott winning the Senate race there. (Both narrow outcomes will likely result in recounts.)

Trafalgar also correctly predicted Senate outcomes in Missouri, Montana, North Dakota, Texas and West Virginia (as of this writing Arizona remains undecided), making it the most accurate pollster of the cycle among those firms that polled multiple Senate and governor races.

Not bad, and Trump wasn't on the ballot in 2018

I posted an entire thread about that topic and Trafalgar was stated by Real Clear Politics to be the most accurate of all polling services in 2018.

Here is a quote from the article:

They missed on the Cruz/Beto. They got the winner right but was off pretty bad on the percentage. Beto getting 80 million $ compared to Cruz’s 37 million maybe a reason. Beto also got a 10 million dollar push within just the last week or so that pushed him up quite a bit. But yes, the poll was still off
