White can force mate in 4 moves, and it seems anything black does is too slow.

1. h5 securing the knight's f3-h4-g6 maneuver

1... a2 I don't know what else.

2. Nh4 a1=Q 3. Ng6+ Kh7 4. Nf8#

I'd say A, white wins!

Really? Maybe I'm missing something but it seems that white has mate in 4 with the knights so A.
