We are talking about a Super High 5 not a Pick 5, and it would be difficult for either wager, but there are far fewer combinations for a SH5 than a Pick5, and you are right that a 5 horse box would be $120, but you would not be required to play a box and as I said before some creative bet construction could be done for far less. What is easy? I guess that betting small fields like I did is a bit easier, but even that can go awry.
