Re: 66 hits set - wait or raise?

BB is loose passive, will bet TPTK or better, calls down light. MP is aggressive, with some odd betting tendencies that I don't quite have a handle on yet, but is definitely a thinking player.
Preflop:
2 limpers, hero calls 66 in the CO, SB completes, BB checkes.
Flop: 5 players, 10sb

SB checks, BB checks, 1 fold, MP bets, hero calls, SB folds, BB calls.
I put the bettor on TP, and figured I wanted the caller in with a 10 or a weak Ace in case I filled up when someone hit trips. Planned on popping the turn.
Bad spot to wait? Decent? Read dependent?
This hand played out very differently then I think it would at lower limits, so I wanted to check it with a couple of you medium stakes guys.

I like the way you did it. You don't want to make it two bets to the other guys on a rainbow flop with an ace up there. You'll scare them away. Plus, if one of the guys yet to act flopped two pair he may check raise and give you a chance to 3 bet. On a draw heavy board I raise the flop, but here I play it like you did.
