Not sure, but I'd pass as Blue. I think White's supposed to lay back on the 19pt, fill in his board, and pick up Blue's spare checker when it comes around. Seems like he has reasonable prospects of doing this and going on to win some gammons. Blue's racing lead is mostly an illusion. He's already got a lot of wastage and is likely to have more. His chances of hitting a shot are small, so he doesn't have much of a game plan.

I'd cube as White. Even if the above plan fails he remains a favorite, and I don't think he's too good.
