Hi Alvin,

You are on the right track, but as it stands the white queen attacks square d3 
and could take the knight at d3, so that is not yet a good move.  Hint: The 
queen is out rather early in the game and can easily become the target of an 
attack so look for a way to force the queen off the third rank.
