Sounds like a very strong double to me, and in general, your approach sounds good (maybe should be more aggressive). What you describe - maybe it is already a pass. To give some data points, 64 run 55 dance is a huge drop at 4-away 4-away, and an easy take for money.

So if you are a reasonable favorite to win the game, and have reasonably good gammon chances, turn the cube. You want to win 4 point when 4-away!
