I've seen them posted on track live at SA and GP, although I don't know when the horses were weighed.
But yes, I agree the exercise would be interesting: accuracy of weights via scale vs. weights via estimation using PPs from a variable time of layoff.
I do agree that a horse's weight loss/gain (over the course of a race...or a layoff..or over a span of several races) could be an indicator of lots of important things to the player.
