I think we want to anchor here. White is not well positioned for a priming game, but he wouldn't mind attacking next turn. So, 24/23 with the 1st ace ads security for a next roll and many more to come. I would also like to keep all points in front of White's golden anchor. Therefore, second ace is forced 4/3. With the last 2 aces we have a choice between 11/10(2) and 8/7(2)[I don't think shuffling 4pt and 3pt checkers is really an option]. Keeping a point six pips away looks attractive, but I think it is more important to add direct covers for Blue's 4pt. I will go for 24/23, 11/10(2), 4/3.
