Contract:
4♠ by North

♣A
North should bid the 6-card spade suit on the first round, despite the poor quality. South should reverse ('bid above the barrier') to show the strength of the hand. North should bite the bullet and bid 4♥, asking for preference. Note that 3♥ would be plain wrong because it would be Fourth Suit Forcing, asking partner for a heart stop.
