Daily chess puzzle: Check Mate #195
Another puzzle from Dragoslav Andric’s 1981 book “Matni Udar”.
Black to play and mate White

Aitken v Keller, Newcave 1954
Solution
I presume Newcave might be Newquay, but, anyway, a fairly standard finale, given the threat of back rank mate. 1…Qd1+ 2 Nd1 Nf3+ 3 Bf3 Re1 mate, or similar endings if White plays alternative defences.
