From my observations on the tighter tracks with short runs to home, the bolters are often allowed to take up the front positions while the fancied horses sit back before making their runs.
If they leave their runs too late or strike trouble, the donkeys that have been allowed to lead around the turn, often hang on in a short straight whereas on the bigger tracks this is less likely to happen.
