The first auction might start

1D - 1H
1S - 2C (fourth suit)
2D - 3H.

Now opener has a problem with only 11 cards and it is hard to predict the final contract.

The second hand probably starts

1H - 2NT (GF with 4+ card support)

Then it depends on your responses. If opener can show a strong hand with club shortness then responder should have no problem cooperating and I think that a slam should be reached.
Please note: I am interested in boring, bog standard, 2/1.
