Best move

Logic Level 2

It is whites turn now. Assuming optimal play from both sides, which piece is best to move for the next turn?

NOTE: "Best move" in this case indicates either an immediate path to checkmate, or a beneficial trade in material. Consider pawns to be 1 point, knights and bishops to be 3 points, rooks to be 5, and queens to be 7.

Bxf7+!

Kxf7 Ng5+ Ke8 Ne6 trapping the queen. Kg7 after Ng5+ amounts to the same thing. If Bxf7+ Kxf7 Ng5+ Kf6, Qf3+ Kxg5 d4+ Kh4 Qg3+ Kh5 Qg5#.

Yes beat move i from bishop at c4. Because can attack on pawn and check the king. Its work best if the game must be on the three check mode or more check.
