Cube decision, 4 point holding game

I would take this because Blue's racing chances are still O.K. and he's not likely to be gammoned. In fact I've been dinged by GNU a couple of times recently for doubling positions like this from a position like White's (five prime against advanced anchor but trailing in the race). Admittedly those were five-point holding games which are significantly better than four-point holding games, and Blue had a better board, but this still looks like a take to me. Regardless, I would double, because either I'm wrong and it really is a drop, or I'm right that it's a take but my opponent might pass.
