Bethani and I played a 5 horse .10 super for the first time a couple weeks ago ($12) and hit. Payed $100. That ratio (8-1+) is about right for the way I play. Doubt I'll play it much, but it's a fun action bet when you see a group of horses at big prices and you can't formulate a coherent opinion. That's pretty much what happened with the play mentioned... One 7-2 horse mixed in with four horses from 8-1 to 20-1. The 7-2 was third or fourth and the other prices juiced the payoff.
But Sunday at Hollywood, Bethani and I hit a $424 tri keying the 'obvious' horse on top with five underneath ($20). The $1 payout was $212, so we got 10-1 in a far less risky bet.
