I totally agree that white should win the position (as the overwhelming + score points out) but i do not agree that a mating net can be found ! it always will envolve a reducing picture toward a queen horse or queenbishop endgame where both sides have attractive queening moves ! i think the pawns are more important then the rook and the bishops - prove me with analysis chen ! you must be chinese i suspect !
