I think that contract could be realized by a double squeeze type twin entry (more difficultly clash), bye.

I believe at the table you might be required to actually state a line of play, at least where I come from.

Unimaginative guess: Draw trumps. Cash ♣AK, ♠K. Unless a black Q appears, finesse ♥T.
If rho turns up with 4 ♦s, instead, you might, more imaginatively: Cash ♦AKQJT (discarding 2 ♣s). Then ♠AK (looking for a singleton ♠Q or doubleton ♠QT). Continue with ♣K, ♥Q, ♣A (throwing ♠9 unless it's good). Finally, unless ♣8 is good, play ♥AK4.

When you have "impasse situation" to avoid one of many way is the squeeze play (in this hand 3 impasses). With this "aleotorital" on this spot is not the case of positional endings. Than let us win diamond, Q ♥, in dummy in diamond, A and K of spades, A and K of heart ( does Jack falls down ? if not) pitching a club (hopeing to be on 4-3), retourning in S with diamond. Now if an opp has 3 controlls had to be squeezed on next-to-last free winner diamond because if not running last diamond both opp will be simultaneously double (double menace in club) squeezed by a twin entry ending (type B with two winners). In spade an opp must have Q and 10 or if honors are divided one opp not unblocking. One of problems about this automatic ending is reading the exact orientation of unilaterals to discard that controlled by W when not winning menace in N. (In case of ruff in heart and overruff by S had to supply a repeating triple squeeze).

[Lovera]

The other squeeze solution is clash requiring heart controll (9 or J) in W (because automatic position doesn't work): win diamond in dummy and let you cash A ♠ then run diamond pitching a club on 10 ♦. W if retain heart should descart club on last diamond otherwise you can cash separatly J and K of spade (Q of spade in W) and you descart 3 ♥ in dummy and now last heart squeezes E in spade and club.

When will be possible to see the four hands ?

I think that in West we could find probabler 4-4-3-2 shape than 4-3-3-3. However why doesn't continue discussion (also about others aspect to consider) ?
