Safe or bold?

Since no play prevents white from having a plethora of good rolls, make the play that is the best when she rolls poorly, 7,5. Blue will be hit 14 times, but on the other 22 rolls he will have a direct shot at her, usually with extras, and own a five-point board. Any play that attempts to delay the action is weak, as blue will be caught between trying to get off the 23 and contain white at the same time, a losing game plan with four of her builders set to pounce when he leaves with one man. If blue gets hit, all is not lost, he will still have a duece-point game.
