I'm not the expert at this, but I would guess that it could be situational.
As an example, SA 6.5f on the downhill turf, they usually try to leave the first 3 posts open because of the right-hand turn. In the old days, when they'd have the occasional large field, they'd utilize the inner posts.
Perhaps at other tracks it can be about weather, condition of the track, etc. I do not personally have knowledge of the practice.
I also question that it matters much except in crowded fields.
