Safe or bold play in this GS position

My inclination at gammon-save is to just make the 13 point and assume I'm going to get later, less potentially costly shots. Being so far behind in the race would normally call for hitting, but leaving four blots with three checkers already back is far less than apetizing for me. And, of course, I don't need to gammon the opponent, I just need to win and to not get gammoned. 15/13, 14/13. Worst case, generally speaking, is I lose 2 and play a DMP game. However, opponent's next couple of rolls are going to be most interesting.
