8/36 escape this turn. If those are followed by 16/36 fans by White then the market has been lost (pretty significantly). But that only happens 10% of the time.

Blue doesn't even advance 16/36 times.

The real unknown for me is: how easy will it be for White to contain Blue after White enters? S/he has only the builders on the 8-10 and those are blockers. S/he can hit loose but Blue's board is as good as White's.

Suppose White closes one of the inner board points but has several checkers in the outfield and Blue is on the bar. Will Blue then have a Take? I think so. Thus White has a lot of work to do to take the lead in this game.

I've talked myself into D+T. (Let's see if Stick beavers.)
