From yesterdays Daylong number 1.
After butchering the play and ending up 6NT-2 I was surprised to get 53.13% for this board - along with 11 others.
One person got it right for 6NT= and another person made 6D=
Turns out you can make 6 of anything (except clubs).
Pre-emptive apologies for the bidding.
West leads the 4

OK, the 2 response is revolting, 1-1-2 and you'll probably reach 6 which you will likely make (pitch the third card in one of the majors on the second club and now spades are 3-3 when you ruff them out or the 10 is good, but certainly won't be worse than -1.

in 6N you're not likely to find the play that makes it

I would have played exactly as you did, and believe it (finding a favorable diamond position along with the spade finesse) is the right line.
