Problem:
Playing Matchpoints, you open 1♣ in first seat with the South hand. Partner gets excited, and within a few seconds you end up as declarer in 6♣. The good news is that you escaped a diamond lead, and receive a friendly heart lead instead. However, you still have your work cut out in order to make the contract. How do you proceed?

Hint:
Though the heart lead has solved your guess in that suit, it still looks as if the contract hinges on a successful club finesse. Can you find a way to improve your chances?
