I think if you maybe had 1500 extra chips - then you could make a case for shoving. You are in a very strong position to make third place and the only way you are going to put it into jeopardy is by shoving this hand.

I don't think calling is so bad in this position, although it is a long shot that you will hit your set I see no reason not to put an extra 600 chips in the pot. You do not significantly weaken your position (you will still have 1500 chips left once you have posted the small blind) in relation to the short stack - who is unlikely to survive the blinds.
