-- first double needs to be better defined, I think 10+ HCP 2- H, 3+ spades perhaps? This hand should raise to 3 hearts (3+H, 8-10?), a bit stronger can bid 2s LR+.

-- second double should show 3+ diamonds not 2+ IMO?


There's also an issue that I think 3c/3d directly over 2h are non-forcing, which is a bit weird. NF free bid is OK when there are two known suits, two cue bids and you are playing unu vs. unusual, but with Michaels over a major there is only one cue available.
