Storming the Prime

Blue has three checkers behind a prime and White has a checker on the bar against a 5 point-board. Blue can hit a second checker. For the time being, an entering 2 means a White deucepoint game. Blue needs to escape from the prime, and to have the time to do that, he'd like to hit another checker.
My estimate is that you'd need about 30% cubeless to take this this cube. Blue is far away from that, so the take is trivial. I'd wait, because technically it is probably very close whether or not to double, Blue's side is easy to misplay, and White might make a cube mistake next turn.
