This would be similar to SPECIAL OLYMPIANS explaining themselves. Who can get into the mind of an idiot?
Moreover, how many in the racing public pool actually have a clue when it comes to watching races? Ever check out some of the comments on these forums? So, it would be a case of SPECIAL OLYMPIANS providing explanations to SPECIAL OLYMPIANS. This can work.

We don't need EXPLANATIONS from the stewards, we need MORE SKILLED stewards. There's a dearth of good trip handicappers out there, I realize, but EVERY SINGLE ONE of them is better at watching races than ANY of the stewards out there. Of course, probably none of them has graduated from a stewards program. Oh yeah.

Yet another intractable problem in racing. Stewards' decisions are just another way to lose.
