I think it isnīt too bad there. Second 9 could scare him.
If he raises just fold and if he calls see what the river brings.

pretty much worst card in the deck to be double barreling an unknown with.

Yeah. This card helps his range, making a DB retarded. Now if it was a J high flop and a Q came on the turn, you'd have more of an argument for a DB, because if he had the J he can't take much heat, and if he had a lower pair he was folding to a turn bet anyway. But in this hand, when he calls the flop bet I think you can narrow his range to:

40% A
30% 9
20% flush draw
10% lower pair

Not the best situation to DB.

This is such a bad spot to double barrel on, If he has an Ace hes not folding, the 9 pairs on the turn so now hes never folding that. I doubt a MP limp/caller even folds a FD here.

i dont like a double barrel on this turn, but fwiw i think a FD is a greater part of his range to call flop than a 9
