Blue is ahead in position and threats but white has a nice race lead. The take looks pretty clear.

Is it a cube? What are the market losers? Any double will do. So will hit/dance, but the dancing sequences are few. Hit and fail to anchor? Yeah, that should do it to, as would anchoring on the ace. So, I think there are enough market losers to cube.

How does the score affect things? Live takepoint is not that different than for money and the gammon value is reduced if the cube is turned and increased if the cube remains in the center. So, maybe blue should hold to keep the elevated gammon value?

I'll cube here - some will pass and that should make it a practical double if not a theoretical one.
