Test your chess: daily chess puzzle # 137

White to play and win

CC de Villiers v C Van der Merwe 2005

Solution

1 Nd6+! comes to mind fairly easily, mainly with the idea of 1…Bd6 2 Qe6+, when the queen is 'in', followed by 3 Bd6+ 1-0.

Black has no options, either. If e.g. 1…Kg8, then say 2 Bb7 is also 1-0.
