4♥. Good raise to 4♠. That will get us to slam sometimes when it is on.

4♠ nearest game but 5 or 6 ♣ or ♦ could all be better.
We have learned nothing from this bidding, other that partner is minimum with 5 or more spades.
I don't like X!, bidding 3♦ instead shows strength and shape.

Did my X show max and suggest 4xD? And 5+C? Now add S-tolerance by 4H bid. Twice choosing a strong bid may be just enough for partner to 'see' slam.
