Correct weight was held up for some time. I heard stewards were looking at film of start. Train of thought was a barrier attendant had hold of winx.

my recollection is that something similar to your hypothesis happened at Eagle Farm in the 80's or early 90's---stewards declared the horse had an unfair "start" (disadvantaged)---but still won----it as then put to the owners who, of course, waived the entitlement to have it declared a non - runner --

I seem to recall a number of years ago a horse placed but was declared  a non runner, so they changed the  rules? I could be making it up though

pretty straight forward me thinks    denied a fair start moneys back      many moons ago  backed a horse at mornington    the attendant had hold of its head and somehow managed to rib the the bit out of its mouth    the horse ran second beaten a nostril         trainer protested    stewards dismissed                                                                                               winxs is to valuable to play round with       having said that  if you want to get a horse beaten  then the barriers are the place to do it   all concealed
