Grand Prix Attack!

Here, white is in a commanding position. A better pawn structure with a kingside attack well underway. One could calculate some possible breakthrough lines, but why not get some color background first to give us insight! So, the imbalance here is our knight vs his light bishop. Meaning – we are ahead on dark, he is ahead on light. How to use this extra dark money? Well, he already has some holes on dark with his fianchettoed bishop missing. Now a mate on h7 would be nice, but the Nf6 protects. So – let's deal with that, shall we!
