Engines are more likely to surge at high power settings because the engine is working closer to the "surge line". TO thrust is obviously one such case.
Any significant disruption to the flow into the engine in such cases increases the risk of surge, as does any kind of sudden change in the engine control. (Though modern FADECs provide a deal of protection these days)
