Bet or hope to induce a bluff from a missed flush draw?

Also, do you prefer to bet out here or go for a CR? The opponents are generally speaking a bit on the passive side but not to an extreme degree.

I think the flop is closer than you think between checking and betting. You have to bet that river. His AF isn't that high...I don't think he would bet a busted flush draw often and he might call a bet (but check through) with ace high or some PP. What's his WTSD?

I'd check the flop and reevaluate when it gets back to me. On the river, there is a chance he checks behind a better 10 than yours. The ace of clubs raises the flop a lot, so even though he'd probably pay off with that I don't think he has it very often. You get value from 2x, 55, 66, 77, 88, 99. If it's someone who you think will draw to a bunch of different clubs and bluff them, checking is better. With just his stats I would bet.

40 over 300 hands so he probably will call his fair share of A high hands but as Lmn55d mentioned he may also check a better T behind.

doesn't really matter what you do here...
I'd say mix it up with you checking 60-70% of the time.

I would check the flop and see what happens. Betting this hand first of five is pretty reckless.

You need to bet the river. You'll get paid by many hands that suspect you have the flush draw.
