Is there a consensus whether to lead an honor or low heart here? If I lead an honor, I assume I'm taking my two tricks (usually) and shifting.

At IMPs I would probably lead a low heart, hoping they are 6-2-2-3 around the table and partner can get in and return one to beat the contract. I doubt we have a good chance to beat the contract otherwise (but it may depend on my perception of the opponent).

At MPs, on the other hand, I think I would lead a spade.

Lead low and hope they can't cash 9 off the top.
