Should I push in this spot?

This hand was from the Take on Tikay and I was starting to move up the field. The villian min raises, so I pop it up, if someone comes over the top then I'm out of there, well maybe not if it is Trev ;)

Once the flop comes down, I just want to take it down with the flush draw on board.  I can't think someone is just calling with jacks, queens, kings or aces in that spot but if they hit a set they have got me.

I didn't think I'd be called in as many spots, my question is do you push, make your stand before flop with the hand?   

Any other comments are more than welcome

Cheers

Ross

    Just unlucky to get so many callers- dunno the right answer - as you say you need to treat your 9s as you would As or Ks here as its unlikely anyone has flatted a bigger pair pre - don't mind how you played it
