b/22 24/23 is my "automatic" play, spreading them out to maximize the chances for an advanced anchor. Sometimes it's right to keep the anchor (b/22 6/5) or advance it (b/23 24/23 6/5). I think I'd go that route if I were farther behind in the race, where a deep anchor might yield more shots, or if White was more of a threat to attack. But here, Blue has a good offensive structure and most of White's ammunition is still back on his midpoint, so I'd "triple-split" and go for a more advanced anchor.
