After winning with the club ace it would have been an elementary safety play to return to the South Baron hand with a heart honour, the only quick method, and to lay down the diamond queen, on which a club would be discarded from dummy, Then the defenders should just try to get a club ruff! Dummy's high spades would be a barrier against any ruff except by the trump ace which would, of course, be perfectly all right with declarer.
I hope no reader will think I am adopting a supercilious attitude toward East's defensive play, but the fact remains that the contract was fice cold under proper handling.
