3rd: 2,4,5,6
4th: 5
5th: 1 (ML 6-1),7 (ML 8-5)

Results going into race 5:
2nd: 3 won it at 23-1(ML of 8-1) (longest shot in the field)
3rd: 5 won it at 7-2 (ML of 7-2) (beat an 8-5 and 5-2)
4th: 5 won it at 3-1 (ML of 10-1) (bet down from 10-1 morning line and beat a 9-5)

I was expecting a pretty big payoff considering there is almost $7,000 in the pool.

Payoffs are:
1: $920
2: SCR
3: 3 of 4 payoff
4: 3 of 4 payoff
5: 3 of 4 payoff
6: 3 of 4 payoff
7: $728

These are $1 payoffs and I have it for $1.00. Do you feel this is a pretty low payoff for the 2 horses I have, considering the rest are 3 of 4 payoffs?

Feeling a bit ripped off

There were only 2 horses paying 4 out of 4, no one played any other combinations except with those 2 horses. That's why the payoff was smaller than you might expect.
