I took it. I think a lot of people see things very differently on this issue.

I took it as well. I voted for all instances to remain as-is ( no DQ's )
However, in the instance on the far turn, I suggested a fine or short suspension for the jockey. The first instance was iffy, and was the toughest decision.

That is something missing. A question if the jockey should be reviewed by the stewards for something he/she did, such as wrong side whipping, herding, failure to stay in path, etc. That would be informative on survey too.
I think the most difficult part is public perception. If someone who bet on a horse gets DQ'd they are naturally upset. The person who bets and gets put up are happy. The public who watches very often has a stake in the result. A difficult situation. However public perception of some sort of consistency across tracks and jurisdictions would go a long way with the public. I'd like to see a race in NY, Cal, KY, Fl all present consistency. I think that would be better for the public.
