Partner has invited you to bid game and you have 10 points, an absolute maximum.
But, he has also told you he is worried about ♣s and your help in that suit is rather nebulous.

Since you have to make a judgement one way or the other you should decide that a Queen is a little bit of Help and with the 10 points that should be enough.
You bid 4.
