I expect that shortest mate is even closer. Move that lead to mate is >checking move. This is why I wrote "easy". Chessmaster6000(ss=10) did not find a shorter mate in 10 minutes. There are at least 2 solutions for mate in 9 and white does not need the white queen at h3 for them. Without the queens h3,h6 it is also a forced mate but chessmaster could only find a mate in 10.
