my first hunch is that you are up against 2 pair, specifically 4 and 5 (maybe a set). If that is correct you still have 8 outs for a redraw, with pot offering you 15 : 1. I would call that turn and see the river, given your position and then base my actions on what sb + utg do there.

[PokerBob]

I think you have to see the turn with 15BB in the pot.

SB's CR on the flop looks like a set, maybe two pair.
UTG+1's calls 2 cold TWICE on the flop looks like a nut flush draw (I can't imagine him calling preflop with 67, but its possible).

Unless UTG+1 is an uber loose calling station, chasing overcards or hanging in there with an overpair (although he didn't raise preflop), I'd be very leary of the Q /images/graemlins/diamond.gif falling on the river, and really like the turn fold because of that. Even though the pot size is large and you are closing the action, you are drawing thin to only one safe card, the Q /images/graemlins/heart.gif. I don't think raising here has any value because you aren't going to push out SB and UTG+1 is obviously coming along looking for any /images/graemlins/diamond.gif.

If that read is correct, I really think I like folding here better than calling. You know you are likely behind to SB and don't have much room for improvement here.

Don't forget the possibility of a 6-7 flopped straight. I would have dropped on the turn too, but you can at least entertain the idea of one more raise.

I mentioned that I can't imagine UTG+1 playing 67 from this position...but it is possible indeed.

[arkady]

If there is a possibility that the SB has 2 pair he is protecting and the UTG is hanging around with overcards or nut flush draw, does the possibility of a redraw not justify this call?

[MaxPower]

Look under the bed and see if there is a monster.

You have to take into account not only your chances of improving to the best hand, but the chances that you have the best hand.

Why is everyone so quick to put the SB on a monster hand when we don't know anything about him?
