Maybe because Stormello was close to that fast pace you mentioned and Street Sense wasn't?
Nakatani said that he had to take Thor's Echo off the rail for fear of running over horses in front of him.
Round Pond exploded when she was moved to the rail.
Octave was moving strongly until Gomez switched her out, then she just flattened out.
Yes, there was a rail bias. How much more evidence do you need? The trainers say so, the jockeys say so, pretty much anyone who was at the track or watched the races says so, and four of the five dirt races were won by the inside horse.
