Can't look at this with assistance since both my comps are
currently playing......WChess2000 v MCP8 and I am not sure
tomorrow I will have time to look at it.

But setting up a board I see.
1.Rxa4  2.bxa Nc4 3.Qc1 Qxa4 your variation with Qf4 I don't like to much
for white. Now from here after say 4. Rd1 best I can see for black is a
rep Qb3+ Qa4+.

I have not looked at the options after Nc4 as played by CM6666 but since
it wins it would appear stronger.

Thanks.
