Double Eagle

Stars $20 tourney, 60 players left, 45 get paid. I am at the end of a rush having gone from short stack to 3rd in chips within the space of 20 minutes or so, when I'm dealt the following hand. The relevant player seems to be very solid and is quite capable of slowplaying a monster (just limp re-raised all in with Aces a few minutes earlier.) Very interested in how you all would play the turn here, this seems to be a common situation for me - a decent hand, a check caller and a scary board. Would appreciate feedback on the thought process here....
