H (Hit, 13/11 6/5) "feels" somewhat automatic here based on the difference in Blue's flexibility of position when he is missed, though it's probably a close decision in this case due to White's superior board. Compared to E (Each, 15/13 6/5*), H leaves an extra 31 33 to hit, and 65 53 55 to hit a second checker. Also, hitting battles will tend to be uphill; for example in the variation where White hits the checker on her 20pt and Blue comes back with a 7 or 9 (hitting on his far side), Blue's extra blots will be a significant liability.

I'll go with H anyway, if nothing else because it leads to a more complex game.
