Painful yet easy?

I have AJo UTG+1 with T1500 stack and 50/100 blinds. I raise to 250, all fold except SB (T2000) calls. Flop A-9-3 rainbow, SB bets 100, I raise to 400 in a 700 pot, SB raises to 800, I fold. How's my line?

I think you should have raised more on the flop, to about 700 and called an allin.

AJos utg or utg+1 is easy preflop fold here.

I would not think this player has AK possible AQ.

so I would be more incline to call, than make a weak reraise. If you where going to reraise it should have been more, pot size at least.
