Default Re: 5/10 LO8 -- cap turn with nut straight?

Does anyone bet in this spot to try to fold a small flush? It wouldn't have to work too often to be right.

Now that I think about it, betting the river after getting checked to in this situation is looking more and more like the right move.

In addition to the small chance it folds a weak flush there is also a small chance someone folds the straight and I scoop or get 1/2 a pot where I would have split or got 1/3.

The pot is big enough that I think this is a good play even if it fails 80-90% of the time.
