It really doesn't matter one bit if it would have been a valid foul claim. There were two photos in the race so it wasn't super quick. Either they screwed up or Garcia lied and maybe figured there'd be an inquiry.

You're making an awful lot of assumptions to have such an absolute opinion.
Races aren't made official after the weigh out any more in most cases. How do you know exactly how it works between the outriders and the stewards?
Maybe the stewards are responsible. But for you to be so absolute without knowing anything close to any of the facts seems a little puzzling.
