Even without any formulas, I think it's easy to see that Black is in trouble here. Say Yellow takes two rolls to bear in and four rolls to bear off; that should be about average. To win, Black has to bear off all 12 checkers in five rolls or less, which is a pretty tall order with all those checkers on the 5pt and a gap on the 4pt.
