Small heart.
Spade looks clever, but partner holds only 4 spades and there is no reason to help the leader develop his 5-card

A club lead makes sense, I was thinking that myself, don't know if I would do it though. Here is the logic....
Spades: Their suit not ours.
Hearts: If partner really wanted hearts that badly, he could have doubled, so he doesn't have great hearts.
Diamonds: I need a lot of help in the diamond suit.
Clubs: All I need is partner with the KC or JC with an entry. Sure it may give up a trick to the King, but he may have length in it.

I agree completely. KJx leads are tougher. AQx is a great lead. You rarelky actually give up the Queen in practice.
"Gibberish in, gibberish out. A trial judge, three sets of lawyers, and now three appellate judges cannot agree on what this law means. And we ask police officers, prosecutors, defense lawyers, and citizens to enforce or abide by it? The legislature continues to write unreadable statutes. Gibberish should not be enforced as law."

A heart is normal.
In heat one I'd lead the ♣A if had the right feeling about it.

They have ESP or other means in use to find that lead.
From bridge point of view, I can find no logic to support a club lead. If someone else can, help out!
