Standard play is to check your entire range here. Assuming UTG+1 is a good Tag player, he shouldn't be iso-ing with week hands, so expect him to have TT+ quite often.
If you lead here, the fish in utg will often call, encouraging UTG+1 or MP+1 to either over call or raise, and your hand is too week to stand any action with this many players to the flop.
So mostly you will be x/f in this spot. Only exception would be if action checks to MP+1 and he bets. Now you could consider a x/r for value against his much wider range, knowing that UTG+1 should have bet with any good holding.
Hello Tomaloc,
Either lead it out and protect from draws/overcards and avoid them Checking behind or just Check/Fold, we can't really Check/Call for example vs UTG+1 range.
Best Regards.
