24/22 4/1 preferred play; 6/1 second best but I think you need to get both checkers ready to jump out.

The original solution was either 6/4 6/3 (killing 4s are refusing to make the ace, and keeping the valuable spare on the 24) or 24/22 6/3 which leaves the 6 slotted. But whatever you do, don't cover the ace which is fatal because you won't be able to recirculate.
