Is there some sort of a rule enforcing proper reporting of times? Or is it done on the honor system, like those boxes of candy bars you see lying around?

Tim on stakes horses the times are almost always reported correctly. The chicanery of incorrect workout times is 95% with first time starters or 2nd time starter maidens. Its a game thats been played since the 1800's. AFter they win and people know what they are they put the works down because they know there is no price there.
Its why my friend is so valuable with maidens.
