nf5+ then either mate or ng4+ then ++. Maybe ?
– Vinay
1.Nf5+ exf5 (…Kf6 Nd7+ Kxf5 Qe5+ Kg4 Nf6#) 2.Nd7+ f6 3.h8=Q+ Qxh8 4.Qxf6+ Kg8 5.Rxh8#
(no guarantees)
h8=Q+ wins no matter what Black captures with
1.Nf5+ Kf6 (exf5 Nxf7+ Kg6 h8=N+ black loses Queen and a rook) 2. Rh6+ kxf5 3.g4#
I hope thats correct, susan how are you ?
1 Nf5+ exf5
( ….. Kf6
Nd7+ Kxf5
Qf6+ Kg4
Ne5# this is a mate problem )
( ….. Kh8
Nxf7# )
2 Nd7+ Re5
3 Qxe5+ f6
4 h8Q+ Qxh8
5 Qxf6#
if in above
2 Nd7+ f6
3 h8Q+ Qxh8
4 Qxf6#
all lines must lead to mate. winning a queen and rook is good but not the object here.

1.Nf5+ exf5
(1… Kh8 2.Nf7# . or 1… Kf6 2.Nd7+ Kxf5 3.Qf6+ Kg4 4.Ne5#)
2.h8=Q+ Qxh8
3.Nxf7+ Kg6
(3… Kf8 4.Rxh8+ Ke7 5.Qd6#)
4.Nxh8+ Rxh8
5.Qd6+ Kg7
6.Qe7+ Kg6
7.Qf7#
After concluding my analysis, I checked what others said and maybe daniel and anonymous found more elegant solutions to what i consider the main line.
