if Qxh6: Nf7+, Kh7, Bxf5+, Qg6, Bxg6+, Kg7 (or Kg8), Bh5+, Kh7, Rxa8 white’s winning
if Kg8: Ne4+, (if Qg7, Qxg7++) Kf7, Nxf6, and white is winning too

1.RxB+…..QxR,
2.Nd5+
a good bait for black, for if 2……..RxN,3.Qf6+ and black is doomed.
2…….Kf8
3.Rh8+ ……Kg7
4.Qg4+…….Kxh8
5.NxQc7 ……..
am not sure if black can combat white’s flexible Queen and his superior pawns .
Rxd5 if Qxf4 Nxf4 1-0
if exd5 Nd5+ if(Re7 Qxc7 Rxe1 Nc6 1-0)
if Kd8 Ne6 1-0
