# 4/5 in red suits

East's opening 1heart was a canapé or showed 6+ hearts. East's 1spade was forcing and 2diamond showed 4-5 in the red suits. 2spade was a suit, forcing, and showed values. 3diamond set the trump suit and there followed two cue bids before East's extraordinary leap to 6diamond on an aceless hand.

How do you play on a club to North's ace, and another club?
