The answer to your problem is in the TeXbook, p. 189, bottom.  If you
don't have it, well the bottom line, so to speak, is that that break
is determined by \predisplaypenalty which is initially set to 10000,
``because fine printers traditionally shun displayed formulas at the
very top of a page.''  Put \predisplaypenalty=0 at the beginning of your
document and all should be as you want it.  This should work exactly the
same in LaTeX.
