Ok, some of these ones are obvious..but 1 is not, so I thought we could look at that spare 1 collectively  ;)

The first three 1s are easy, b/24* 6/5(2). With the last one I like to play 11/10, this puts another builder in range of our 4 point or makes it so we can make the 10 point sometime soon. This play does leave us more vulnerable to being hit, but I don't think it matters much since our opponent only has a 2 point board right now.

Play the fourth ace 11/10 so that it bears on the four point (aka the next point we want to make).  No other ace is so constructive.
