Playing 2/1 game invitational

Could be a tricky one to make.

Our auction is likely to be:
1S 2C
2S 3S
4C 4D
4H 4N
6S P

The game plan is less simple.

Several possible strategies. My first thought was regarding whether to duck the ♥ and let it run to the 10 or take it with the Ace. The Ace is likely best. I think at the end you need to have run down to the last trump and play to the AJ♣ and take the finesse or not depending on discards.
