Hmmm....I wonder.
Well I have seen this question and here are my thoughts;
1) It's a complicated and challenging question. Of course it very well may be different answers in each case. If you can narrow it down and give one or two I might give it a crack. I don't think anyone is ignoring the question, it's just that it is so open ended that it would require a lot of work in order to make a dilligent response. Who has the time to review the entire card that day?

2) By asking this question over and over, are you implying that there is some overriding obvious explanation that we should be aware of without even studying each horse and race on a case by case basis.

3) Whatever the reasons are for other top contenders not winning at Calder on Saturday, how is that relevant to the very narrow discussion we are having about LITF? Let's say that another top contender on the card did not win due to the very same reasons being ascribed to LITF, didn't fire, wasn't right, etc. That wouldn't imply that this was the same reason for LITF's performance. I believe this is a logical phallacy, one doesn't imply the other.

Maybe I'm misundetstanding the reason for your question.
