Now we have two lines, cash a spade, take a club ruff. My squeeze prospects seem quite good and if K came down in three rounds I'm already home.

Another possibility is of course taking two more ruffs but then you need trumps breaking which seems worse.

 

I'm not sure if you could safely fit some extra chances of J singleton or doubleton in diamonds if you abandon full cross ruff from the start.
