				The grid has a couple of cells with one extra candidate. 
 
 
Also an XYZ-Wing (169) hinged in r4c7=> -6r4c9. |

Play this puzzle online at the Daily Sudoku site
 
 
I couldn't get rid of the 5 in r4c7 to see Marty's XYZ wing- except if r4c7 were
 
5 then r5c8=4 and r4c9=6. Then since r4c6 cannot be both of r4's needed 4 and 9 
 
this answer is impossible. Therefore 5 can be removed from r4c7 and the 
 
XYZ wing stands......or have I lost the plot somewhere?
