12 horse field versus a 9 horse field. With 12 horses there's 1320 possible trifecta combinations and with 9 horses there's only 504 combinations. I also thought it was light but that's probably the main reason.
The pick 4 also was a bit light. It actually came in UNDER the parlay, which almost never happens with sufficient pool size (and I'd call $2.1 million sufficient!) The only thing I can come up with is Skyring played closer to the 12-1 ML than the 24-1 post time odds. Then everything falls into place much better.
