Black have to move bishop out of c1-h6 diag (or block its queen in a5, avoiding she help in black's defence).
I had missed that. good move.

Change my vote to Rbd1.

After looking for a minute the position, Rbd1 deserves a close look. The idea is to force Bc3 and THEN we play f4. Why? Now the bishop cannot defend the king side from the diagonal c1 h6. and later, if we decide to play Nf4-d5 the bishop won't have the chance to be traded for the Knight at f4. After Rbd1 Bc3, the bishop is out of the game.

For now, my vote is Rbd1

I think that's enough votes for you to take this as our move Nick.

I originally thought Ra1 Qb7/ Ra2 with the same idea. That is theory is better (the rook is better in a2 than d1) but black has the choice to play Qc8, returning the pawn in a7.

f4. It's what we've been preparing, after all.
