My first thought was B/23 8/4 8/6, which is neat but leaves White with all the time to make another good point and a big advantage against 3 back checkers. Board size are equal, we have more checkers back, so we can risk a bit, hitting to take away half a roll and sometimes a complete roll. That gives Blue the chance to make a better anchor. So let's start with B/23 4/2*. Then 6s are duped, if we move 11/7 5s are also duped. So we can play 8/6(2), reducing the blot count and creating good spares on the 6, without a real loss of covers compared to 11/7 or 8/6 11/9. So I'd play B/23 4/2* 8/6(2).
