Either a H honor or a small club seems reasonable. If you lead H, you have to hope partner has a spade trick and a H honor. Then declarer may only come to 8 tricks before you run H. If you lead C, you have to hope partner has K fourth or fifth.
And by the way, 4S makes 4 easily. Not sure how anyone went down. It will make 7 on a H lead if you guess the diamonds right.

Well for eg you might think E is favourite to have the KS for his spade length, and play ace and another spade after a heart lead to reduce the chance of a ruff. I don't think it's the right play, but 'easily' seems like an overbid.
