It would actually be easy but would be a cost that the tracks probably wont want to incur until there is a demand for it. In Hong Kong, all works are electronically timed. As a matter of fact every horse has an electronic device in thier saddle towel like a trackus device that times them whenever they are on the track, even for gallops or jogging. Each horse is assigned a special towel that they must wear everyday. I asked what happens if you switch towels and jail was mentioned, though that would be a little harsher than we would see over here. The problem as usual is the expense of installing the timing system.
