There is NO session on 8th May

6.12 Third Hand Opening
Hand 3: Open Light in Third for a Top Result

Two Easts played in NT and both made 9 Tricks

One can only assume North didn't open 1♠. If (s)he did then South would likely have led the ♠ 9 and the defence would have taken six Tricks (four Spades,  A, ♣ K)

Without any clue that North has Spades South will lead a Heart or a Club and East comes to 9 tricks.
