It’s Your Move: daily chess puzzle #298
White to play and win

Keene v Robatsch, Madrid 1971
Solution
Part of my chess education, as a British junior of the Fischer era: I have seen this game of England’s second (correction, previously I wrote first, by mistake) GM many times.
1 Rf7! Kf7 2 Rf1+ Ke7 (2…Kg8 3 Nf6+) 3 d6+ Kd7

4 Rf7+ is curtains. Nc5 follows.
