Well, obviously the jocks would still be heavily fined and could get lengthy suspensions for something like you mention. Do you think they would risk that, and possibly losing business from an owner while endangering horses, to cash a bet?
My point is that the stewards get it wrong at least as many times as they get it right, so why not just let the results stand for betting only? At least then you have consistency. Even when the stewards get one right, most DQs do not change the finish to what it would have been had a foul not occurred.
