Depends on your agreements about preempts,
depenindg on vulnerability and position.

Most likely the best bid you have is Pass.

If you intend to bid, you have to start with spades.

Game is roughly 50%, but missing a 50% game being green is not the end of the world
and sometimes it will be less than 50%, e.g. if the 3C preempt was made with a 6 carder,
and a 4 card diamond suit on the side.
