Sequencing choices...how do YOU like it?

hey jet-jockey's,

So I need to make a sequence of two aircraft into a class C areodrome, I need 10NM between them by 40NM from the field. I can:
* Vector the 2nd aircraft (at high level) to achieve the 10NM and then give him profile speed on the drop?
* 2nd aircraft to min clean in the cruise, and not abv 250k on the drop?
* Leave on profile in cruise, not abv 250k on drop and then vector at about 50NM to achieve the 10NM spacing if I don't already have it?
* (Prob the most preferable...?) but give the 2nd aircraft a time and speed to cross a feeder fix at 50NM a while out?

I am asking which the crew prefer by way of pax comfort and fuel usage. I use most of these each day and want to see which you guys prefer? Assume the speeds on the drop are given way in advance of TOD.

Thanks and look foward to your answers.

GD.
