Why does the winner stay up but Brice Blanc goes away for 3 days

[docicu3]

Yesterday Santa Anita delivered a 3 day vacation to Brice Blanc for a ride in a turf route on Jan 13 where he was cited for interference as he took "On The Acorn" from 11TH to first during his stretch run in the 7TH last Saturday.

The race paid out without even an inquiry. The replay seemed to show Blanc moving across several paths to the front but it is very hard to see who was interferred with.

Can you change path if no other horse is impeeded?

Wouldn't you assume that since no inquiry was raised that the jocks didn't complain about the ride thus why does Blanc get suspended?

What exactly does the rule say?

Is this because the California Racing Commission delayed banning bute and anabolic steroids for a month so somebody's gotta pay!!!!
