I think you must bet this turn, because there are a lot of hands that would have peeled this flop and will either fold to or just call the turn bet. If you are called when beaten or raised, you still have a lot of outs to win the pot. And because you have the best position, you will sometimes win the pot UI after your turn bet when you get one or two callers who were both drawing.

sweetjazz is right on, bet it everytime. in fact, i'd probably bet your hand even w/o the club draw. doesn't appear anyone has a J, an 8 is unlikely, and it'd be hard for a 5 to call a turn bet. you could easily have the best hand and have showdown value against straightdraws and weaker club draws.
