Maybe the lift causes the front to lift more than the back thereby increasing the angle of attack of the body shape. As the centre of lift is probably more towards the front than the back.
Correct me if I am wrong but that is what happens in many older cars.

With its CLf much greater than its CLr (at least at zero yaw) you'd certainly think the centre of pressure was well forward.
But I am not sure that answers Mort's question, does it?
