If a jockey can sue for his winning percentage back in this (ridiculous) situation is there any difference in a punter suing the BHA for return of winnings due to the winner not being disqualified?

Didn't the courts go over the heads of football authorities to introduce the 'Bosman Rule'? Couldn't they also go over the heads of the racing authorities? Just because a rule is introduced to a sport doesn't automatically mean it is sustainable in the court of law.

If an employer introduced a rule you can have say 5 cigarette breaks a week and someone is seen on cctv going for 6. They then decide to fine this employee his weeks wages, would the courts not come down on the side of this person? For me the penalty, as with Soumillion, far outweighs the crime.
