Question about upgrade chances for NA flights

Hello,

I'm an AC E and I need to book a flight from YYZ to IAH in the next few days.
I see AC has several flights per day for this route, and I was wondering which time of the day usually has the lowest number of business travelers and SEs flying out, so my chances of getting upgraded can be maximized.
Better yet, generally speaking, for NA flights (Canada and US), what is usually the best time to fly (early morning, noon-ish, evening, etc) to find the most number of open J seats?
Is it mostly random and pure luck, or is there a trend?
Thanks a lot in advance-
