4H shows mild slam interest...
Lead is the ♠J

Plan the play...trump break 2/1

I wish I could remember how to do spoiler---

anyway draw 2 round of trumps play off the tops spades and ruff a spade back to hand

then lead a dia intending to finesse the J. If the trick wins you can try the club finesse

for an overtrick if it loses west will have to give you a ruff and sluff or lead into the club or

diamond tenace for your 12th trick

Win the lead, cash AQ of trumps, when they break, cash the other spade, ruff a spade and then take the diamond finesse. If trumps break 3-0 then, draw the last round, cash the other spade and ruff the last before taking the finesse guaranteeing the contract if LHO had 3 or less spades, otherwise a 75% shot.

Double hook in diamonds is already a huge favorite considering west's failure to lead ♦K, and stripping spades first tops the scales off nicely.
